Accelerated Bachelor's/Master's Degree Requirements
The Accelerated Bachelors/Master鈥檚 (ABM) degree program allows exceptional undergraduate students at NC聽State an opportunity to complete the requirements for both the Bachelor鈥檚 and Master鈥檚 degrees at an accelerated pace. These undergraduate students may double count up to 12 credits and obtain a non-thesis Master鈥檚 degree in the same field within 12 months of completing the Bachelor鈥檚 degree, or obtain a thesis-based Master鈥檚 degree in the same field within 18 months of completing the Bachelor鈥檚 degree.
This degree program also provides an opportunity for the Directors of Graduate Programs (DGPs) at NC聽State to recruit rising juniors in their major to their graduate programs. However, permission to pursue an ABM degree program does not guarantee admission to the Graduate School. Admission is contingent on meeting eligibility requirements at the time of entering the graduate program.
