Master's Degrees UF has developed a program for undergraduates that allows those who qualify academically to obtain both a bachelor's and master's degree. This combined degree program allows students to double-count graduate courses toward both an undergraduate and graduate degree, thus reducing the time it takes to get both degrees. Qualified students should consult their department adviser to determine whether the department offers combined degree programs and whether they qualify. The cost of both degrees is reduced, for 8-15 credits apply toward both degrees.
Students have time to decide whether to pursue further graduate or professional study.
Program provides continuity between undergraduate and graduate studies. Florida PrePaid College Tuition Program participants will receive funding for the first 120 credit hours. The program will fund graduate courses taken toward the undergraduate degree at the undergraduate level. Combined degree programs allow students to get a head start on their graduate education by taking graduate courses throughout the junior and senior undergraduate years. Financial aid may be available to assist with the graduate degree portion of the program.
