Timeframe For Degree Completion
Indiana Business College Online holds its classes according to a "quarter system." Each quarter lasts three months (12 weeks). There are four quarters in a year and you go to school year round until you complete your program. Students who go to school full-time (taking four to five classes) can complete their degree in as little as 18 months. Students who go to school part time taking only two to three classes each quarter will attend school longer.
