Welcome to Capella
Select your program and we'll help guide you through important information as you prepare for the application process.
Most students take one to two courses at a time. One course typically requires 10 to 12 hours of study per week.
Courses are divided into 10 weekly units. Each unit consists of readings, discussions, and other activities you will be expected to complete throughout the week. Assignments are due on Sundays, though not every course requires an assignment each week.
In each course, you'll receive a detailed scoring guide that describes expectations for every graded assignment.
Grades are based on your participation in weekly reading discussions and completion of assignments. You'll also be assessed on your ability to demonstrate the expected outcomes for your program or specialization. These outcomes are based on the needs and performance standards of your field or discipline.
