Students enrolled in the Camden College of Arts and Sciences or in
University College may apply during their junior year to enter the
dual-degree program (B.A./M.A.). This program enables students with
strong academic credentials to begin graduate work while still
undergraduates, thus speeding the completion of the master's
degree. Camden undergraduates who intend to pursue a master's
degree in the Rutgers-Camden Graduate School must be approved for entry
into this dual-degree program by the director of the graduate program
in which they wish to study. If accepted, they may take one graduate
course in each term of their senior year. These two courses are charged
at the undergraduate tuition rate, but are double-counted toward both
the B.A. and the master's degree requirements. As seniors, students
must apply to the Graduate School in regular fashion, and be formally
admitted and matriculated. They then go on to complete the
remainder of their credits as master's-level students.
