Flex Standard Term Enrollment Model - 24 Weeks 
Flex Accelerated Term Enrollment Model -10 Weeks


Chaminade offers students a  flexible and more affordable online program to earn your degree. In the Flex program,  students can choose between two models that will allow them to determine their rate of completion. Courses start at the beginning of each month, allowing twelve enrollment starts throughout the year. There are no set class meeting times so you can learn when it is most convenient for you around your schedule. You will have 24/7 access to your online courses so it is a flexible way to reach your goals. The Flex Standard model allows students to complete their courses in 24 weeks or less, according to their own schedule. The Flex Accelerated model, similar to a traditional model, allows students to complete courses in 10 weeks. Students utilizing VA benefits must enroll in the Flex Accelerated program in order to utilize their benefits. In both models, students have access to a dedicated professional academic advisor and a faculty advisor. Students will have success checkpoints throughout their coursework with faculty and student success advisors. With small class sizes and program flexibility, there are ample opportunities to engage with your faculty and receive individual attention. 


Online degree programs:  Business Administration, Criminology and Criminal Justice, Education, Historical and Political Studies, and Psychology
