Actually, 21:40 is correct. Look at Harvard, Yale, etc.

I used to work at AU and attended grad school there, and I can recall a few programs that had classes in the morning or afternoon - some of the classes in the Communications department, but the vast majority are in the evening.

At AU anyway, even the kids fresh out of college who were not professionals yet, were interested in doing internships during the day and taking classes at night. Especially in MBA programs - they are really geared toward folks who work and are getting the degree through work..

If that is not an option I would consider online.

Do you think this is more true in the DC area than other areas? I went to college in Pittsburgh, and daytime full-time graduate study was the norm...Definately more family friendly, since you could treat it like a job and be done at 5:00 daily. I should probably just move back.

OT - but cool I did my degrees in Pittsburgh too. My husband did his grad degrees during the day. My master's classes were geared towards professionals, so our classes were at night but I remember other MBA classes being held during the day.

I thought that grad program times were partially dependent on program rankings, ie highly rated grad programs with higher admissions criteria cater to full time day students.

This was also the perception back in Pittsburgh in my experience, but doesn't seem to be true in the DC area.
