Accelerate Your Studies

While enrolled as an undergraduate student, you can begin taking graduate-level classes. You’ll be prepared to enter the workforce with an advanced degree more quickly.

Your graduate courses will count as electives towards your undergraduate degree. Most AMP students take between six to 12 hours of graduate courses while enrolled as an undergraduate. That means you can complete your master’s degree in as little as 12 to 18 months after receiving your bachelor’s degree! Once fully admitted into the master’s program, graduate tuition costs including differential tuition fees will apply.

Earning both your bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Consumer, Apparel, and Retail studies will help you build relevant, marketable skills that will make you stand out in a competitive job market.
