Accelerated MBA Program

For students of Russell Sage College, there are policies that allow acceleration of the programs in Sage Graduate School.

Undergraduate students in good standing, with a GPA of 3.0, may take graduate courses for undergraduate credit, with advisor approval and permission of the Dean of Sage Graduate School.

Undergraduate students who are seniors and who have a GPA of 3.0 may take two graduate courses for graduate credit, with advisor approval and permission of the Dean of Sage Graduate School.  These courses may satisfy undergraduate requirements, or if they are completed beyond the 120 credits required for the baccalaureate degree, may satisfy graduate requirements.

Undergraduate students hoping to enroll in graduate coursework should be aware of the restrictions on the policies that support acceleration.  No undergraduate degree can be completed with fewer than 120 credits. The graduate degree must include a minimum of 30 credits beyond the 120 required for the baccalaureate degree.  Students in undergraduate programs should seek advisement from their program advisor and from the graduate program to which they will apply, to ensure that the courses selected apply to the appropriate programs. An application to the accelerated MBA program must be completed.

The following classes (See Sage Graduate School catalog) can be used as substitutions for undergraduate courses and must be approved by your faculty advisor and the Dean of Sage Graduate School.
