Pursue BAM or Concurrent Degrees

If you're interested in a bachelor's–accelerated master's program, you will need to submit a BAM intent application. You can also use the form to upload any additional application materials required by the department for consideration. Students typically apply in their junior year.

Please inquire with the department that offers your program of interest for program-specific deadlines and additional information.

Under the BAM program, you'll receive your bachelor's degree once you've met the undergraduate requirements. Up to 12 credit hours can be taken while in undergraduate status (typically in your senior year), which can later be used toward the master's degree. A limited number of credits can be double counted toward both degrees.

You will need to submit a master's continuation form to continue with the master's degree, and will finish your degree requirements in graduate status.

The last day to apply to graduate with your bachelor's degree and submit a master's continuation form is:

• Oct. 1 for fall graduates
• Feb. 1 for spring graduates
• March 1 for summer graduates

If you're a BAM student at undergraduate status and your expected graduation term has changed, you will need to complete a BAM program change form. This is also the form to use if you decide you no longer want to continue with the master’s.

If you’re a BAM student at graduate status and you no longer want to continue with the master's, you will need to withdraw.
