William Howard Taft University Now Offers Directed Study Format + Launches New Website
Our website looks a bit different!
This week, we launched a new website that we hope better demonstrates what we offer our students. For decades, we’ve offered high quality online graduate degree programs that make higher education accessible for busy working professionals. Whether students find themselves limited by finances or time commitment, we consistently work to ensure our programs offer the opportunity to help our students and alumni find success in their careers and achieve their goals.
While our Independent Study learning modality has always offered the flexibility many graduate students need to earn a new degree, we’ve found an increasing need for more options to fit different needs and preferences.
Six Programs Are Now Offered in Our New Directed Study Format
Our latest addition is the Directed Study learning modality. This new program format offers more structure and collaboration for students who learn best with the regular interaction of other learners. As you progress through your Directed Study program, you’ll submit weekly assignments, participate in regular discussion boards, and progress through each course with a cohort. While the Independent Study format involves working with a faculty mentor for each course, in a Directed Study program, you’ll have more support from both student peers and faculty.
Not only does the Directed Study format offer a more “traditional” online learning experience, it also makes it possible for eligible students to use federal financial aid to cover program costs. Depending on students’ financial situation, Taft University System students may now apply for financial or schedule affordable monthly payments to cover the cost of their education.
The Directed Study format is an option for six of our degree programs:
