Accelerated Degree Program Option
Qualified Marquette undergraduate students can enter as an Accelerated Degree Program (ADP) during their junior year and earn their bachelor’s and master’s degrees in as few as five years.
Accelerated Degree Programs (or "4+1" programs) allow current Marquette University undergraduate students to continue on for a master's degree after completing their bachelor's degrees. ADP students take classes during their junior or senior years that meet requirements for both their undergraduate and graduate degrees.
Post-baccalaureate applicants who are not current Marquette undergraduate students can also apply to complete this program full-time as a traditional Master’s student. In this case, the program is expected to take 2 years to complete.
