Accelerated Pathways to a Master's Degree

Why choose an accelerated bachelor's-to-master's completion plan?

• Save time and money by completing prerequisites along with selected master’s-level courses as part of your undergraduate program ... potentially at no additional cost.
• Enhance your marketability as you search for a job by earning a highly regarded professional credential along with your undergraduate degree.
• Complete your master's degree online after you are already working (available for pathways to an M.B.A., M.Min., M.A.B.L., and M.A.W.T.). The Advanced M.Div. is an accelerated residential program.
• Enjoy streamlined admission to the master's program.

How the accelerated pathways work:

• Complete any required prerequisites as part of your undergraduate electives.
• Take selected graduate courses during your senior year.
• Start your graduate program with advanced status, reducing your overall cost and time to completion.

Take the next steps:

• Talk with your admissions counselor or academic advisor to learn more about how an accelerated bachelor’s to master’s pathway will benefit you.
• Work with your advisor to schedule prerequisite courses as your electives.
• Register for graduate-level courses by your senior year. (Obtain permission form from the Office of the Registrar.)
• Officially apply for your master’s program by the last semester of your undergraduate studies.
