Frequently Asked Questions

  • What if I need prerequisites to qualify for a program?

    We offer many common prerequisite courses online to help professionals meet requirements in a flexible format. If you’re concerned about meeting the requirements of one of our programs, speak with an Admissions Counselor to discuss your options.

  • Are there any financial aid or scholarship opportunities?

    In addition to loans and self-funding, you'll have the opportunity to qualify for scholarships and student work opportunities, where you’ll earn a small stipend for your work as a graduate assistant, research assistant, or teaching assistant. 

    Alumni and employees of Mass General Brigham (MGB) and academic affiliate institutions may receive a tuition reduction on select programs. 

  • How are online courses different from in-person courses?

    Online programs allow for more flexibility to manage your daily life while pursuing your degree, but they share the same curriculum, standards, and faculty as in-person programs.
