Accelerated B.A./M.A. Program in English
The accelerated program allows
exceptionally fine students to complete both a Bachelor of Arts
and a Master of Arts in English in four years. The admission standards
for this program are high:
- Minimum of 600 on SAT verbal; 1200 combined SATs.
- Minimum of 90 overall h.s. average; 95 in English
Students who meet these admissions requirements and are accepted
into the English program by the English Graduate Program Coordinator,
complete 138 credits, including 102 undergraduate
credits and 36 graduate credits. These credits must include
all the undergraduate and graduate English major requirements and
the undergraduate liberal education requirements. Students ordinarily
take 17 or 18 credits per semester and often need at least one or
two summer courses (often graduate courses toward the end of their
study) to complete both degrees in four years.
