## CCU Online Courses FAQ

##### 1. What if I’m interested in completing a Master’s Thesis?

The master’s thesis is not required for any of the master’s programs. As some students are interested in completing research in their major, we have added the option of completing a master’s thesis (9 unit option). For this, students will develop a research topic related to their major and work with the graduate review committee to research and write a master’s thesis.

##### 2. Is this an accredited college course?

Yes. California Coast University holds accreditation through the [Distance Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC)](http://www.deac.org/). DEAC is listed by the United States Department of Education as a nationally recognized accrediting agency.
