Learning Approach

Our course program is designed for mature, independent student and not for everyone. It is designed to give the maximum flexibility of study in their own time. Students are sent list of examination questions. The coursework consists of researching from the textbook to answer exam questions designed to dwell on the important issues on the subject. The student will then mail the answers back to the school and send it through e-mail to corinthiannaturopathiccollege@yahoo.com. The student has to obtain a correct score of at least 85% before a credit is given for the course of study. No final examination is given. Coursework is intense. Therefore, no final test is necessary. Textbooks are shipped along with the course assignments. Students may begin studies the first day they receive shipment. If students experience difficulties in their studies, they may email their assigned Faculty Advisor, or talk thru messenger/zoom.

 

Academic Year

The academic year is highly flexible. You may enroll at any time, study at your own pace, between your job and your off-time, to complete the course work. You will graduate when you have fulfilled all your academic, clinical and financial requirements. If you wish to graduate on a particular date, these obligations must first be settled prior to that date. Within six weeks or less after graduation, you will receive your certificate or diploma you have earned.

Registration and Fees

The first two courses will be sent immediately upon completion of an Application for Enrollment and Financial Arrangements.  One course will be mailed each month, as monthly payments progress. Final course will not be issued until all financial obligations for the semester are meet.
