The Department of Philosophy offers a program in which qualified students may earn both a BA and MA in philosophy in five years. This is accomplished by applying 9 hours of approved graduate courses to both the BA and MA. Interested students typically apply for conditional admission to the program during, or immediately following, their third year of undergraduate study. A student will be conditionally admitted to the program only if they- are a declared Philosophy major, have completed at least 90 hours overall with a minimum GPA of 3.25, and have completed at least 15 hours in Philosophy with a minimum GPA of 3.5. Applicants must also provide three letters of recommendation. Applicants are strongly encouraged, but not required, to have completed PHIL 235 and at least one 400-level Philosophy course. The Department may consider other relevant factors, such as an applicant's work experience and potential for academic success in deciding whether to conditionally admit students to the BA/MA program. Both the Department of Philosophy and the Graduate School must approve all conditional admissions into the BA/MA program. The Department will inform applicants of its decisions by the beginning of their fourth and final year of undergraduate study.
