ABOUT ACCELERATED PROGRAMS

Students that have 90 credits completed and a 2.75 GPA can earn their undergraduate degree and master’s degree in 5 years. As an undergraduate student, students can enroll in 500 level courses instead of 400 level courses. These higher-level courses will count toward both their undergraduate and master’s degrees per approval by the graduate studies office. Then, during their fifth academic year, students will continue and complete their master’s degree program as normal.

ABOUT THIS PROGRAM
