Educational Offerings at Alliant International University
Alliant International University degree programs are housed within distinct schools:
Most schools offer programs at multiple Alliant International University locations.
Graduate Programs
Alliant offers full-time programs as well as part-time programs designed for working professionals and others with time constraints. All locations offer graduate programs.
Undergraduate Programs
All undergraduate programs in the U.S. are currently offered at the San Diego campus. Undergraduate programs are also offered at the Mexico City campus.
Through the Hufstedler School of Education, Alliant offers a progressive, alternative education program that delivers college-level general education courses on-site at select California high schools across the state. The Mission of the Middle College Partnership is two-fold (1) to help bridge the high school and college experiences, and (2) to prepare high school students for success in higher education and beyond. The Middle College Partnership provides a supportive environment and academically rigorous college courses that enrich high school learning while allowing students to earn transferable college credit while attending high school.
Credential and Non-Degree Programs
Programs offering credentials and certificates in a variety of fields, generally for professionals, are shown by school.
Extended Degree and Part-Time Programs
The Fresno campus and Sacramento campus offer doctoral programs in clinical psychology on a part-time basis. This option is available to those entering at all levels. All such part-time programs include one year in a full-time internship and have a time limit for completion.
Most clinical psychology doctoral programs at the Los Angeles campus require that all students attend full-time unless a modified program has been approved.
The San Diego campus offers an extended degree option within most clinical psychology programs for students who wish to study at an adjusted pace. Students may extend their programs for one or two years to increase the duration for each program to a maximum of seven years for graduate level entry and six years for those entering with credit for previous graduate work. (This does not include additional time for doctoral extension).
In all of its doctoral clinical psychology programs, the San Francisco Bay campus provides a moderated option in which students enroll at two-thirds pace (8-11 units per term). Students complete the two pre-candidacy years in three years at a moderated pace. Students entering the moderated program after advancement to candidacy complete the remaining years in three to five years, depending upon the degree program and internship option chosen. The coordinator of advising and enrollment provides assistance to moderated students in planning their programs. The campus usually does not permit students accepted and enrolled in the doctoral programs to pursue the doctoral degree at a part-time pace below nine units per term.
