In its description of the program, College Choice said: “This hybrid program blends online courses with face-to-face classes and includes hands-on work experience through internship programs. This is a very affordable degree program, but please note that UMass Dartmouth does not consider applications for online programs from applicants whose permanent residence is in Alabama, Arkansas, Kansas, Maryland or Minnesota (due to state regulations).”
