The Herbal Medicine Certificate Program is typically completed
in two and one-third calendar years in a part-time day schedule
(seven consecutive trimesters), but may be extended due to individual circumstances.
Students are accepted into the programs in the Fall and Summer
trimesters, which begin in September and May, respectively.
Transfer students may be admitted at the beginning of any
trimester.
