Schedule:

Webster has five 9-week terms per year. On campus classes meet one night per week (Monday-Thursday) from 5:30pm-9:30pm. Classes also meet at various cohorts where students go the business and have the class there from 5:30pm-9:30pm and the instructor goes to that site.

Admission:

Admissions requirements will vary depending on which program you choose. Applicants to all graduate programs must have earned a recognized baccalaureate degree from an educational institution accredited by one of the six regional accrediting agencies in the United States. Students who completed their university education abroad must have earned an equivalent recognized baccalaureate degree, as determined by Webster, and must submit original transcripts and the English translation.

Since many graduate students have strong professional experience, the GRE or GMAT entrance exams are not considered predictive of graduate-level performance and are not required. Instead, you demonstrate your ability to perform graduate-level work by earning a “B” or better average to remain in the program.

Full acceptance into the School of Business and Technology and the College of Arts & Sciences requires receipt of an official transcript from the baccalaureate granting institution with a minimum grade point average (G.P.A.) of 2.5. Students whose G.P.A. is above 2.0 but below 2.5 will be admitted under a “special status” category. Specialized graduate programs may have further admission requirements as outlined in their program description.

Tuition (for FY 2009-2010):

Current tuition rates are as follows:

Non-military students on campus: $470 per credit hour

Military students on campus or military base: $312 per credit hour

Online non-military: $635 per credit hour

Online military: $445 per credit hour

Tuition rates increase each year in the summer.
