Designed to fit your life schedule, iFlex scheduling provides flexibility to attend courses through a blend of online and face-to-face, totally online, or flexing between these two modes on a weekly basis. Classes are not self-paced and have weekly deadlines. Students will have identical learning components (assessments and lecture materials, whether sitting in the classroom, attending synchronously through videoconferencing, or learning online).

This iFlex program is scheduled efficiently and reduces student travel to campus, with a mix of in-person class days and online instruction

This program is available 100% online within the iFlex instructional mode.
