How long does the program take to complete?

A maximum of nine credits of graduate course work (with approval from academic advisor) will count toward both the bachelor’s and master’s degrees as long as the requirements for both degrees are satisfied. The Master’s degree requires a total of 30 graduate credits, which means if a student takes 9 graduate credits during their senior year, they will need just 21 additional graduate credits to earn the Master’s degree. The remaining credits can be completed in as little as one year.
