Accelerated, Dual-Degree, and Shared-Credit Pathways
If your Graduate Business program is part of a bachelor's-to-master's ADD/4+1, graduate dual-degree, professional, or other approved shared-credit pathway, review the requirements for your specific pathway before selecting coursework you expect to apply across programs.
Students in approved accelerated, dual-degree, and shared-credit MBA pathways use a 36-credit MBA structure. Most pathways use the 36-credit MBA option. The MBA/MS Finance Accelerated Pathway may be planned with either the 36-credit MBA option or the distinct 36-credit STEM MBA. The 30-credit MBA is not used for shared-credit accelerated pathways.
