4+1 Accelerated Master's

Get ahead of the competition.

The 4+1 program allows students to complete both a BA and an MBA or MS in as little as five years. Students apply for the 4+1 program in their junior/senior year and can take graduate level courses while completing their BA. The graduate credits are in addition to the 120 credits required for graduation with the BA. Upon graduating with a BA and a 3.0 GPA in the last 60 hours, the student would continue in the MBA or MS program where he/she will complete additional credits.
