Dual Degree Programs

Dual degree programs offer students an opportunity for automatic acceptance into a graduate course of study prior to earning a baccalaureate degree for 3+2 and 3+3 dual degree programs. For the 4+2 dual degree Speech-Pathology programs, students complete their baccalaureate degree prior to beginning their graduate level coursework. Dual degree students in the 3+2 and 3+3 programs receive a baccalaureate degree at the end of four years followed by a graduate degree one to two years later (depending on the health sciences program). Students must meet and maintain the required grades, GPAs, and all prerequisite conditions as an undergraduate.
