*Students can transfer up to six credits from either graduate coursework taken within the past five years or courses taken at another university, if the Graduate School approves equivalency with IUP courses. Discuss these options with the ALS Program Coordinator.
Full time and part time options
Most students engaged in the ALS-Ph.D. program are mid-career working professionals and, as such, prefer a part-time educational experience. These students typically take two courses year round (regular Fall and Spring semesters, and a Summer session from late May through late July.) Courses usually meet approximately three hours a night, one time a week. A few students prefer to attend courses full time; full-time study is considered three courses per semester. These students usually are those with an assistantship.
