  • Hybrid Online Meetings will take place for even-numbered sessions (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14)
  • Instructors will communicate the schedule via email and on the course syllabus

In-Person Classes require students to participate fully in-person for listed days and times.

Online Asynchronous Classes allow students to complete their work at their own pace. Students are given a timeframe – it's usually a one-week window – during which they need to connect to their class at least once or twice.

Online Synchronous Classes require students to participate in partial to entire sections of class at the exact same time. Students and instructors are online at scheduled dates/times to participate in lectures, discussions, activities, and presentations.

ALL courses located at the USG campus are limited to students accepted to the Shady Grove MSW. Additional USG schedule information available at https://schedule.sgrove.usmd.edu/scheduleofclasses
