Wheelock College hosts master and undergraduate degree programs in local communities throughout New England and South Carolina. In these regional programs students are able to earn a Wheelock degree close to home, without their classes interfering with work schedules.

Our national and regional programs of study are cohort learning experiences. Students begin and often complete their program together developing strong bonds as professional, academic, and personal experiences are shared. Through collaborative work, strong support networks are built among cohort members, faculty, advisors, and staff lasting well beyond the academic program.

Students enrolled in a National and Regional program take a minimum of two courses during each semester. Classes take place once a week in the evening, or in a three-weekend format (approximately every other weekend) on Fridays from 4:30 p.m.-8:30 p.m. and Saturdays 8:30 a.m.- 4:30 p.m.
