What is the difference between the 16 and 20 month programs? How do I decide which one to choose?
Both tracks or curriculum schedules are four semesters in length; however 16 month students attend courses and complete fieldwork over the spring/summer semester whereas 20 month students do not. 16 Month Track 20 Month Track • 1 field placement for 3 semesters • Field work starts in January (of 1st year) and ends in December (of 2nd year) • Graduate in December • 2 field placements over 4 semesters • Field work starts in September • Summer semester off (typical college schedule) • Graduate in April You should also keep in mind that some field placement options require a specific track. For example, most public school field placement sites only accept 20 month students. The decision between the two different tracks is a personal one that should be weighed carefully for your own educational needs and preferences. Please contact the Office of Student Services (734.936.0961) to speak with an admissions counselor if you have further questions regarding the selection of a curriculum schedul
