Accelerated Options

MSUM offers academic options that help you get a head start on college while in high school, as well as paths to work toward two bachelor’s degrees or undergraduate and graduate degrees at the same time. Online courses can also help you graduate on time or ahead of schedule. Take a look at what might fit your needs.

Bachelor & Graduate Degree in 4 or 5 Years

Graduate accelerated degrees are smart, affordable and convenient, delivering both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in four or five years.

You can often achieve a double major with just a few more courses. Other benefits include a more well-rounded education, expanded career opportunities, and greater earnings potential.
