Sample MPA Course Schedule

Through the MPA program, students typically attend classes as a cohort, taking courses in a prescribed sequence. Depending on the cohort's location, the program is offered either one night a week for four hours, or on alternating Saturdays, when courses are taken simultaneously (typically two courses per semester) in the morning and in the afternoon of that particular Saturday. Please contact your regional adviser for a specific program calendar.
