Graduate Assistantships and Working while in the MS Program

Per page 67 of the LMU Graduate Catalog for the MS Program

•  The curriculum of the MS at LMU is designed to enhance a student’s academic qualifications. All classes are preparatory coursework for professional school and other post-graduate goals. It is strongly recommended that students are not employed during the duration of the program. This ensures that they will be able to focus 100% upon their studies.
