Riding Master
We offer six Riding Master programs which are sequential, upon completion of one program you may move on to the next until you've completed the Riding Master VI which is our full program. You may also choose to graduate upon completion of any program. View sample program schedule and sample daily schedule.
The Comprehensive Riding Master programs are available for students using federal financial aid. By law, to be eligible for financial aid you must be enrolled in a program of 30 weeks or more. Our Riding Master I - VI programs are 12 weeks each, so we offer the Comprehensive Riding Master programs which are just 3 Riding Master programs lumped together to make the program long enough to be eligible for financial aid. The Riding Master I, II, and III together have the same curriculum as the Comprehensive Riding Master III. So if you are applying for federal financial aid you will need to enroll in a Comprehensive Riding Master III program, otherwise you may enroll in the Riding Master I program.
The only difference between the 36 week and 72 week Comprehensive Riding Master programs is the length of time it will take to complete the program - the curriculum is the same. The 72 week programs are what we refer to as extended programs, you will take the same classes - it just takes twice as long to complete. Some students elect to take the 72 week programs because they need more free time for outside obligations including work, child care, etc. View sample program schedule and sample daily schedule for the 36 week programs.
