Chicago Part-Time Evening Program

In the part-time evening program students are able to complete the program within one year by taking three classes in the fall and spring semesters and two classes in the summer semester.

In the fall and spring semesters, students attend class two evenings a week (Mondays and either Wednesday or Thursday) and on some Saturdays during the semester.

The Saturday class meets on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. - 5:15 p.m., with a 45 minute lunch break in the afternoon and meets just six times during the semester. The class that meets on Saturday may be taken online.

The evening classes meet on Monday and either Wednesday or Thursday and begin at 6:00 p.m. In the summer semester, students attend class two evenings per week.

The Part-Time Evening Schedule is designed to accommodate students who work full-time jobs, and many students successfully complete the program while working full-time. However, students should expect a significant amount of outside course work each week.

It is possible to complete the program in four semesters taking two classes per semester. This option is recommended for students with especially demanding work schedules and/or family or other obligations. If you prefer this option, please indicate on your application form that you would like to take two courses per semester.
