Accelerated CAS Bachelor’s/MBA Program

The Accelerated Bachelor’s/MBA Program allows students to earn a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts and a Master of Business Administration degree. Students with a non-business undergraduate degree may be required to take up to 12 credits in qualifying courses and an additional 36 credits of graduate coursework to complete the MBA degree. The accelerated program affords students considerable cost and time savings by allowing them to complete some graduate course requirements while still enrolled as undergraduates.
