Degrees and Certificates

Accelerated MAIS in Interdisciplinary Studies

Accelerated master’s degree programs (BAM) are designed for Mason’s highly qualified and highly motivated undergraduates. BAM provides a streamlined application process with no application fee. Students are allowed to apply six graduate credits to their undergraduate degrees and have the opportunity to take an additional six graduate credits to be held for reserve graduate credit (apply only to the graduate degree), thereby starting their graduate degrees with up to 12 credits earned while undergraduates. Students admitted to an accelerated master’s degree program have the opportunity to complete both degrees in a reduced amount of time, and at a reduced cost.
