Online Program


Our online program is delivered via the State University of New York Learning Network (SLN) and has a required campus residency. The purpose of the campus residency is to ensure program integrity and identify areas of student weakness. Testing, seminars, student presentations and other such activities deemed appropriate to evaluate the student's learning may be required. At this time students will meet with an advisor and could be advised of the need to repeat selected coursework or engage in other such academic activities that will satisfy the reviewing panel's concerns.    

Online residency guidelines for domestic students
For U.S. students planning to complete at least 6 MBA-HSM required and/or elective courses online, at least 1 campus residency will be required. Students will be invited to attend upon completion of 12 online credit hours. They will not be permitted to take more than 18 online hours until they have attended a residency. The residency will be available each May.

Other selected coursework may require a campus presentation as part of the course requirements, e.g., HSM 525 - Health Care Marketing and Strategic Planning.

Students will be required to maintain at least a 3.0 GPA in online courses to continue in the distance learning program. A lower GPA will result in academic counseling and may require the student to withdraw from the distance learning program. At the conclusion of the student’s fourth HSM required and/or elective course taken online, the student’s GPA in online courses will be evaluated.

A residency will be required if a student completes the Capstone Course - HSM 685 on-line.

Online residency guidelines for international students
For MBA-HSM students residing outside of the United States, a virtual residency is available. Please contact Gary Scherzer, program coordinator for details.
