The Accelerated Schedule

This schedule is an intensive, full-time program recommended only for those students who are advised or feel confident they can manage five classes (15 credits) per term. Students selecting this option attend classes five days per week for two years (24 months). There are no terms off; although, as with all programs at Thomas M. Cooley, there are term breaks. Students are strongly encouraged to discuss this option with an academic advisor at Cooley. An admissions representative will also be able to offer an opinion on this program after reviewing your admissions credentials. This schedule allows for elective concentrations.
