School Location
Undergraduate Philosophy majors may opt to enter a five-year B.A./M.A. program. Application to the program will normally take place during the junior year. Students admitted to the B.A./M.A. program will follow the curriculum for Philosophy majors, except that 2 courses taken during the senior year must be eligible for graduate credit. These two courses will count toward the M.A. as well as the B.A. The remainder of the M.A. may thus be completed by taking 8 additional graduate courses as well as the M.A. comprehensive examination and meeting the language requirement for Master's students. It is advisable to consult with the Director of the Graduate Program during junior year. In addition to the 2 graduate level courses that count toward both the B.A. and the M.A., it is strongly recommended that the student take 2 graduate level courses in the senior year that are beyond the 38 courses required for the B.A. and thus count only for the M.A. degree. This allows the student to take a normal graduate course load the fifth year of three courses a semester, in preparation for the M.A. comprehensive examination.
