Program Options
The Accelerated Program can be completed in one-year of intensive study. This program is for you if you have excellent quantitative skills and can devote your full-time efforts to your coursework. The program begins in the Fall semester, where you would enroll in 12 credits of required courses. Six credits of electives must be taken in during Winter session followed by 12 credits of required courses in the Spring semester.

You can begin your full-time time program in any semester: Spring, Summer, Winter, or Fall. In the Full-time program you have a wide choice of elective courses to chose from and you can chose whether you want to take coursework during Winter or Summer sessions, study abroad or perhaps pursue an internship.
