Master of Arts in Human Services - On-Campus

CIP: 44.0000

The Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) provides a taxonomic scheme that supports the accurate tracking and reporting of fields of study and program completions activity. CIP was originally developed by the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics (NCES).*

Program Costs:
Program costs include the total amount of tuition and fees for completing the program within normal time and the typical costs for books and supplies. An explanation of normal time is provided in the on-time completion rate definition below. Program costs are denoted separately for each on-campus and online program due to the difference in tuition costs between the two modalities.

Tuition $21,120 Books $2,200 Fees $180 Total $23,500

On-Time Completion Rate:
The academic calendar for programs offered in the online modality at University of the Rockies is continuous, rather than defined by semester dates. Normally, students take one course at a time and move to the next course in the program sequence without a break. All courses begin on a Tuesday and end on a Monday six weeks later. Dissertation credits are nine weeks in length. Students are allotted four weeks for Comprehensive Exam scheduling and completion. Opportunities to enroll are available up to 50 Tuesdays throughout the calendar year. There is generally one annual two-week Winter Break when courses are not scheduled. For example, the annual break for 2010-2011 occurred from December 21, 2010 to January 3, 2011.

Thus, the normal time for a full-time master’s level student to complete a program may be calculated by multiplying the total number of courses in the program by six (6) weeks, adding four (4) weeks for Comprehensive Exam scheduling and completion, and adding two (2) weeks for each fifty (50) week period required to complete the program. For example, the normal time for completion of a master’s program that consists of thirteen (13) classes would be calculated as follows:

13 classes x 6 weeks each = 78 weeks + 4 scheduled break weeks + 4 weeks for Comprehensive Exam = 86 weeks to complete the program within the normal timeframe.

Prior to July 1, 2011, online students could take a break of up to twenty-nine (29) days between classes without being withdrawn from the program. Beginning July 1, 2011, students may take a break of up to forty-five (45) days between classes without being withdrawn from the program, as long as they provide written confirmation of their intent to return. Any break of this type may affect a student’s ability to complete the program “on-time” as per the methodology above for calculating the on-time program completion rate.

For the on-campus modality, the academic calendar consists of five 9 week term per year where students take two or three courses per term. For example, the normal timeframe for completion of a campus Master’s program (excluding the Mental Healthcare specializations) is a total of 84 weeks for normal timeframe, (13 courses x 2 courses taken per term = 7 terms x 9 weeks per term = 63 weeks of instructional time + University breaks [12 weeks] + Comprehensive Exam scheduling and completion [9 weeks] = 84 weeks normal timeframe.

The on-time program completion rate represents the percentage of students who completed their program in the referenced financial aid award year (July 1 to June 30) within the normal timeframe for that program out of the total students who completed the program in that year. For example, if 100 students completed a program between July 1, 2009 and June 30, 2010, and 60 of those students finished the program within the normal time for completion, the on-time completion rate would be 60%. If there were no completers in the timeframe referenced, then "N/A" will appear.
