Notes
New program: inaugural 28-month cohort began January 2026; CAAHEP Initial Accreditation granted 2025-09-19. On the CASAA 2026-27 participating list for its second (Jan 2027) cohort, but KCU's pages do not post a cycle-specific CASAA deadline (applicants advised to apply ~1 year ahead; $60 secondary application, fee waived with CASAA waiver). Prerequisites must be completed with C or better within 6 years. All prices/prereqs from KCU's own pages; deadline null because unpublished.
