Earn two degrees in five years or less
The benefits of being a fast-track bachelor's to master's student include:
- Saving time by completing graduate courses as an undergraduate - allows you to finish your master’s degree sooner.
- Saving money by taking graduate courses as an undergrad: in fall and spring semesters, you are charged the same flat undergrad rate, as long as you do not take more than 18 credits. In those semesters, your graduate coursework is included for no additional tuition charge.*
- Trying out graduate study to confirm that it’s right for you.
- Flexibility, with both on-ground and online programs available.
- Some graduate classes may count toward your bachelor’s degree (consult your advisor/school/department to see if this applies to you).
- A 25% alumni discount on most graduate programs after graduation.
Some programs allow admitted students to start taking classes as soon as the summer before junior year, so it’s never too early to start thinking about graduate study!
Students should apply for graduate program admission before starting to take graduate coursework; contact the Office of Graduate and Online Admission for details.
