OHMA allows part-time or full time attendance equally. Part-time students usually finish the program in 2 to 3 years. This is a particularly good option for students who intend to work part- or full time while completing their studies, including employees of Columbia University who may be eligible for tuition benefits.
If a student is planning on attending part-time, they must meet with OHMA Director Amy Starecheski (aas39@columbia.edu) to set up a long-term schedule upon acceptance to the program. Please also note that the majority of required courses are only offered during the daytime.
