Curriculum
On the BS-MUP track, you can complete up to 21 credits toward the 45 credit graduate degree while you are still an undergraduate student. This can include both undergraduate course equivalents (see below) and graduate coursework.
If you complete the maximum 21 credits during your undergraduate career and take a prescribed sequence of coursework in consultation with an advisor, you can finish the MUP degree in one additional full-time year.
If you complete fewer than 21 credits, you will need two years to finish the graduate degree at Wagner. Alternatively, you can make part-time progress toward your degree over up to five years which also gives you access to Wagner resources over a longer period as you begin your career. (Whichever path you are on, you will still save on tuition costs on the Bachelor’s-Masters’ track by completing graduate credits during your undergraduate degree.)
For more information about planning your coursework during undergrad and other policies, please see our Advising and Policies.
