Students enrolled in the Camden College of Arts and Sciences
or in University College-Camden may apply during their junior year to enter
the dual-degree bachelor of arts/master of arts (B.A./M.A.) program. 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 psychology in the Rutgers-Camden Graduate School must be approved for entry into this
dual-degree program by the director of graduate studies in psychology. If accepted, they may take one graduate
course in each semester 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-Camden in regular fashion,
and be formally admitted and matriculated. They then go on to
complete the remainder of their credits as master-level students.
