Class Scheduling
There are three semesters per year, but the eight-week terms provide for six entry points and increased flexibility for adult students.
Educational Delivery Systems
Students have a choice of educational delivery systems from which to choose. Available educational delivery systems include in class, campus-based learning and computer-based distance learning. Students may choose to blend the delivery systems in a way that best meets their needs, giving them optimal flexibility as they complete their degrees.
Activities
CGPS students are encouraged to participate in activities at their respective education centers, but may also participate in main campus activities. Students who qualify are eligible for memberships in various scholastic honoraries, such as those in business or criminal justice. Students may use student ID cards to attend main campus events.
Library
All CGPS students have the opportunity to use the main campus Library and Information Services, either in person or on the Web. Multiple resources are available to all students online through the library. Students can access the Web-based catalog of the library’s collection of books, media (tapes, DVDs, CDs, etc.), periodicals (journals, magazines, newspapers and other resources through magazines, newspapers), and other resources through computer labs on or off campus. Some electronic resources require a log-on for off campus use.
Students may request materials not available in the Trine University collection via the inter-library loan (ILL) service. Trine University library materials and ILL borrowed items and photocopies (periodical articles or book chapters) can be delivered to any education center. Trine University library books circulate for three-week periods and media for one-week periods. The lending library sets the loan periods for ILL borrowed items and these vary by institution. In addition, students can apply for a reciprocal borrowing card to access library collections in Indiana universities statewide. Librarians can provide research assistance and guides for using the library and its resources.

Credit is awarded for coursework offered by the military as recommended by the American Council on Education in its Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services.
