Can an accredited college change the curriculum half way through my program?

I’m attending an accredited college for an accelerated masters. They are constantly changing the graduation requirements and classes offered. Both of which help many students to make the decision to stay or relocate and attend another school. I feel like now I’m trapped and have no other option but to continue at this school even though they keep eliminating classes. Classes which they don’t need to worry about people signing up for because all the classes take their lectures and classes together on the same days.

If the accredited college that you are attending has changed the curriculum half way through your program, obviously it can do so. The problem that you are facing is not so much a legal problem byt rather an administrative problem that is quite frustrating for you.

The best way for you to try and achive some sense of knowledge as to what has happened and to asisst you in your curriculum is for you to meet face to face with the dean of your program in order to get some answers to your questions so that you can decide your future course of study.

If the dean does not have the answers to your questions then you need to seek answers at a leve l above him or her.

Good luck.
