AMP-Co-Terminal 800x533

The co-terminal option of the Accelerated Master’s Program is for Illinois Tech undergraduate students who have at least 12 credits left toward their undergraduate degrees. Third-year students are ideal candidates for the co-terminal option, as it requires the completion of at least 60 credits. For transfer students, at least 12 credits must have been completed at Illinois Tech. Choose from either a pre-determined pairing of bachelor’s and master’s degrees, or work with your adviser to select your own pairing that matches your interests.

This program allows undergraduate students to earn both an undergraduate and graduate degree in five to six years. Nine shared credits will apply toward both of your degrees. Additionally, undergraduate financial aid is applied toward both degrees.
