As of Sept 2011, until Sept 2012
The American Public University System offers several options for graduate study: Master's degrees and graduate certificates. Master's degree programs range from 36 to 48 semester hours (12-15 courses) of study and require either a comprehensive exam, a thesis, or an integrative practicum and a GPA of 3.0 for graduation. Students must have completed a bachelor's degree program from an accredited institution to be admitted to a master's degree program. Certificate programs are available to students who seek a shorter program focused on career development or knowledge of a specific discipline. Certificates range from 18 to 27 semester hours; typically 6-9 courses.
