BS/MS Finance ADD Program
Accelerated Dual Degree (ADD) or 4+1: Bachelor of Science in Finance to Master of Science in Finance
Get a head start on your finance career. Earn your bachelor’s and master’s in just 5 years.
The BSF to MSF Accelerated Dual Degree (ADD) (often called a 4+1 program) delivers two degrees faster and for less cost while equipping you with the advanced skills employers want most.
Taking graduate courses that count toward your master’s degree while you are still an undergraduate is a powerful investment in your future.
Rowan University’s Rohrer College of Business (RCB) invites eligible undergraduate students interested in advancing their Finance education to take advantage of this exciting opportunity.
ADD Finance students save nearly $14,000 in tuition by completing the 4+1 in Finance.
Students in the BSF to MSF 4+1 take 4 graduate courses while still an undergraduate, earning 12 graduate credits that count toward both their bachelor’s and master’s. That’s nearly $14,000 in tuition saved.
Graduate sooner. Enter the job market a year earlier with advanced credentials and skills.
The ADD in Finance shaves a whole year—or more—off the time it would usually take to earn a Master of Science in Finance.
