Accelerated Master's Programs

Accelerated MS Deadlines

Applications are due at least one full semester before expected graduation date.

Dec 1, for Spring graduates
Aug 1, for Fall graduates

"...most grad(uate) courses have group projects which is a great way to connect with students in the same program and network."

- Chetana Parupalli, Information Systems, BAM/MS student

You've got what it takes to get ahead, so get started on your Master's degree as early as the first semester of your senior year. 

If you have a strong GPA and have shown yourself to be a motivated student, the accelerated Master's path might be right for you. Students who pursue this program can graduate with a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in just 5 years, giving them a head start on a successful career.
