Joint Bachelor’s/Master’s Program

Salve Regina offers an accelerated program of study that leads to both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree within five years. This program is designed for the University’s highly motivated, academically talented and qualified undergraduates with a recommended GPA of 3.30 or higher. Current undergraduates must complete the application process by Feb. 15 of their junior year.

Undergraduate students considered for the accelerated program are conditionally accepted into the master’s program and take four graduate courses (12 credits) during their senior year. Of those 12 credits, six are applied to the undergraduate degree.

In order to be matriculated into the graduate program, undergraduate students who are conditionally accepted must achieve grades of B or better in each of their four graduate courses, successfully earn their undergraduate degree and, through their maturity and work ethic, demonstrate the ability to succeed at the graduate level.
