full-time or choosing to do the program part-
time. It should be noted that there is no
separate part-time or Oexible evening/weekend
schedule. All part-time students take classes
with full-time students. This typically requires
some employer scheduling Oexibility since
many classes are held during traditional
daytime hours.
