How does it work?
- Accepted Accelerated Master's Program (AMP) students begin work toward their MA during their senior year, while completing the BA.
- Six credits are taken in the senior year that count toward both the BA and the MA
- An additional three credits toward the MA (that do not count toward the BA) are taken before graduating from UVM.
- Three credits toward the MA are taken in the summer after graduation.
- Remaining MA credits (nine per semester) are completed in year 5.
