Claremont Scholars Program: Accelerated Bachelor’s to Master’s Degree Programs at Claremont Graduate University

Accelerated bachelor’s to master’s degree options are available for students of The Claremont Colleges. These programs are designed to allow undergraduate students to begin working toward master’s degree requirements simultaneously with the completion of their bachelor’s degrees. 

Students should apply to the accelerated program at CGU as early as possible, usually in their junior year. The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is waived. Early application allows coordination of course planning between the student, the CGU school or department, and the undergraduate advisor. Transferable credit can be earned upon admission to a CGU master’s degree program; the number of credits varies by program. Additional information can be found by visiting the Claremont Scholars Program website.
