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 undergraduate students with a recommended GPA of 3.30 or higher. Current undergraduates must complete the application process by Feb. 15 of the junior year.

Although many students enter this program with a major in politics, sociology and anthropology or economics, a student from any undergraduate major may apply for admission. Upon acceptance, enrollment begins in the senior year. Candidates may take up to 12 credit hours of graduate work in the senior year (six of which may be applied toward the bachelor's degree). They complete the remaining 24 credit hours in the fifth year of study.
