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 bachelor of arts/master of arts (B.A./M.A.) degree 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 Rutgers Graduate School–Camden 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 per semester. No student make take more than three graduate courses while an undergraduate student. These courses are charged at the undergraduate tuition rate, but are double-counted toward both the B.A. and the M.A. 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's-level students. Application details may be found at http://english.camden.rutgers.edu/programs-and-courses/ba-ma.
