In general, no credit is given for prior learning experience derived from employment or other life experience.

The MSN program is a hybrid accelerated program model. This is a rigorous program due to the nature of the accelerated course offerings and the graduate level advanced study expectations.

Courses in the MSN program are condensed into 8-week block hybrid courses consisting of approximately 50% of class time spent learning 鈥渓ive鈥� (either in person or synchronously online) and 50% of class time spent learning 鈥渙nline鈥� (asynchronously online). Students are expected to actively participate in all 鈥渓ive鈥� and 鈥渙nline鈥� course sessions by engaging with their peers, the instructor, and the content. Students should note that some courses require in person attendance for presentations, events, or other components.

The following calculation provides an example of the estimated time a student should spend, PER WEEK, on a 3-credit hour 8-week hybrid course in the MSN program:

• Live (synchronous online or in person) Learning: 2 hours and 30 minutes per week of active learning + 20 minutes allotted for breaks = a 2 hour and 50 minutes in person class session
• Online Learning: 2 hours and 30 minutes per week of online learning and engaging with online course content
• Outside of Class Study (beyond the in class and online learning): approximately 4 hours study time per credit x 3 credits = 12 hours per week of study outside of live and online learning
• Total Hours of Work per week per 3-credit course: 17 hours

Attendance and participation in all 鈥渓ive鈥� classes during the MSN program are expected 100% of the time. Students are also expected to arrive for class in a timely manner. Failure to attend class results in reduced student learning opportunities, diminished quality of community in the MSN program, demonstrates lack of professionalism by the student, and may result in loss of points and/or a reduction in final letter grade.

Teamwork is an integral part of the learning experience in the MSN program and is an important part of professional success in the field of nutrition and dietetics. Students are expected to demonstrate successful teamwork skills and professional interactions with their peers throughout the MSN program. In addition, students are expected to work with external or campus community partners for the experiential and/or service-learning components of this program.

Students are to uphold all other policies and procedures as outlined in the MSN Handbook including late assignment policies, academic integrity policies, among others.

The mission of the 海角直播 Denver DPD is to prepare diverse students from the Denver Metropolitan area for successful careers in food, nutrition and dietetics by providing quality education in the core knowledge requirements for the registered dietitian that is culturally sensitive and instills a desire for life-long learning.

According to the听, to become a听, you will need to:

1. Complete a minimum of a master鈥檚 degree听granted by a college or university accredited by a U.S. Department of Education recognized accrediting agency or foreign equivalent, and coursework through an Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics accredited Didactic, Coordinated, Graduate or International program.
2. Complete required supervised practice/experience through an ACEND-accredited Coordinated Program, Graduate Program, or an Individualized Supervised Practice Pathway offered through an ACEND-accredited program.
3. Pass a national examination听administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration. For more information regarding the examination, refer to听.
4. Meet requirements to practice in your state.听Many states have regulatory laws (i.e. licensure) for food and nutrition practitioners. All states accept the RDN credential for state licensure purposes.
5. Stay up-to-date in dietetics through continuing education.听After successfully passing the national exam and earning the credential, RDNs maintain ongoing professional development in order to stay up to date on the latest research, recommendations and best practices.

Dietetics education programs in colleges and universities are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics 鈥� or ACEND. As an accrediting agency, ACEND makes sure that听听are getting the education they need to qualify for taking the national RDN exam.

There are several kinds of听听鈥� each offering a different experience and 鈥減athway鈥� to RDN eligibility. Search the听听to find an accredited dietetics education program.

Students enrolled in the MSN program are not required to pursue becoming an RDN. Career opportunities for non – RDN nutrition professionals do exist. However, students are encouraged to meet with an advisor to discuss the option of becoming an RDN and how the RDN vs non – RDN pathway could impact their future career. To schedule an advising session, please email [email protected]听or call 303-615-0990.

Students in the MSN program can apply to the Coordinated Program during the last semesters of their studies.

For further questions, please email us at听[email protected].

Students are paying for an experiential learning opportunity while enrolled in the Coordinated Program. Costs for these types of programs approximately range from $5,000-$50,000, depending on location, completion of a master’s degree along with the program, etc. Coordinated Programs tied to graduate credit are eligible for financial aid to cover expenses.

Further, it should be noted that most Coordinated Programs are full-time programs which require the student to complete rotations in the field on a full-time, 40 hour a week, basis. Students are not paid for this time.

Coordinated Programs are therefore, unpaid experiences that have a cost. The Department of Nutrition can help you determine strategies for overcoming cost barriers associated with the Coordinated Program. To schedule an appointment with an advisor to speak more about this, call 303-615-0990 or email [email protected].

Full-time Coordinated Program typically range from 6-12 months. Part-time Coordinated Program typically range from 1-2 years in length.

The CDR requires a minimum of a master鈥檚 degree to be eligible to take the credentialing exam to become a RDN. For more information about educational pathways to become an RDN please visit the .

No, we do not require the GRE for the MSN program.

There is not an “all online” option. The MSN is offered as a hybrid program which includes both online content and face-to-face meeting sessions for each course.

The face-to-face portion of courses in the MSN program meet once a week and are typically offered in the evenings during the weekdays.

If you don’t have a 3.0 GPA from your undergraduate degree, you can still apply to our program. You may be able to be “admitted with requirements.” Requirements to stay in the program include maintaining a 3.0 GPA your first semester of courses.

We听accept students for听both full-time and part-time tracks.

Students enrolled in the full-time option will:

• complete all required courses within a 12-month timeframe
• enroll in approximately 3-16 credit hours per semester, or 3-7 credit hours per 8-week term
• focus on 1-3 courses maximum during each 8-week term
• finishing within a 12-month timeframe includes taking courses during the summer and winterim terms

Students enrolled in the part-time option will:

• complete all required courses within a 24-month timeframe
• enroll in approximately 3-8 credit hours per semester, or 1-4 credit hours per 8-week term
• focus on 1 course at a time or up to 2-3 courses maximum during each 8-week term
• finishing within a 24-month timeframe includes taking courses during the summer and winterim terms

No, students cannot complete the MSN and supervised practice at the same time. Students may apply to the supervised practice year of the Coordinated Program once they are nearing the end of their MSN program, and start the supervised practice year once they have graduated. All MSN coursework must be completed prior to beginning supervised practice.

In 2024, the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) changed the entry-level education requirements for dietitian registration eligibility from a bachelor鈥檚 degree to a master鈥檚 degree. In addition, students must obtain a DPD verification statement. The MSN program offers a Dietetics concentration.

For further questions, please email us at听[email protected].

Students who are accepted into the MSN program are not automatically enrolled in or accepted into the Coordinated Program. The supervised practice year of the Coordinated Program requires a separate application process.

For more information about the application process and your eligibility for the Supervised Practice Year of the Coordinated Program, schedule an appointment with an advisor by calling 303-615-0990 or emailing [email protected].
