Be a Leader at the Heart of Business and Technology
With Nova Southeastern University’s Dual Admission program, you can earn your bachelor's and master’s degrees in Information Systems in five years. This program is perfect for students who like solving problems, using technology strategically, managing projects, and communicating with people at all levels of business. You’ll gain both the soft and technical skills that make you stand out to hiring managers while you learn from top industry experts.
Program Overview
A Dual Admission program is available to qualified freshman and transfer students, allowing them to complete a combined bachelor's degree and master’s degree in accounting in a total of a five-year period (4+1).
After successfully completing a four-year undergraduate degree at NSU (see requirements chart below), students are eligible to immediately start their Master’s in Information Systems.
Eligibility
To be considered for dual admission and fill your reserved seat in graduate or professional school, there are some requirements you must meet. Undergraduate Admission Requirements are for first-time in college students applying to earn a bachelor's degree. Graduate Admission Requirements are the standards students need to maintain, while earning their undergraduate degree, to remain eligible for the graduate or professional program.
Undergraduate Admission Requirements
Graduate Admission Requirements
Keep your dual admission status while you earn your bachelor’s.
Dual Admission reserves your seat in NSU’s Master’s of Science in Information Systems program, but you must still complete a graduate application once you finish your bachelor’s degree.
Keep in mind that these are the basic requirements, and final determination of admission into the professional program is at the discretion of the College of Computing and Engineering.
Additional Requirements
College credits that were earned through advanced high school programs such as AP,
IB or college academy—or in summer coursework following high school graduation, prior
to attending NSU—may transfer to NSU.
Students who enter NSU with earned college credits through advanced high school programs
may be able to complete their degree and program requirements earlier than scheduled
and request to enter their graduate professional programs earlier as well.
Please contact your admissions representative for more details regarding high school transfer credits.
