Question on behalf of my friends

Graduate School
1

My friend Stephanie is looking at PH.D programs in Physics (Astronomy/Cosmology). How many semesters can she expect to be in class?

My friend Barbara is looking at Sociology MA programs. Would it be considered disingenuous to apply to schools without a terminal MA?
