When can I start?

Full-time students in Corvallis will need to start either in Summer (12-month program), or Fall (9-month program).

Start terms may vary per student. For more information, please contact a recruiter.

I hear that OSU is on a quarter system, what does that mean?
  • OSU has three terms (called “quarters”) each academic year (Fall, Winter, Spring). Classes are 10 weeks of instruction plus one week for finals (for comparison, semester systems typically have two 15-week terms in their academic year).
  • OSU also has a Summer term that offers different sessions for classes including accelerated course formats. Most graduate business classes meet only during fall, winter, and spring terms.
  • Please see the OSU academic calendar for more information.
Where and when are the in-person classes held for the Portland Hybrid program?
