Hey guys, I just found out that I was accepted into the Brandeis International Business Scholar Program, which is a 5 year dual degree program in which I will get both my bachelor’s and master’s degree in International Business and Finance. Does anyone know more details regarding the program? Is it a credited program and is it worth it? Is anyone in the program right now who might have some more information about the program?
I received its acceptance as well. Anyone who can help us out?
Got one as well
In the same boat, except that I got international economics and finance, not international business and finance, which really doesn’t make sense because isn’t finance part of business?
Congratulations on your admission to Brandeis and on being named a Brandeis International Business School Scholar! Students who indicated an interest in our 5-year direct admit program on their applications were reviewed for admission into this selective program, and we are pleased to have been able to admit so many exceptional candidates. Being part of this program allows you to earn a Bachelor of Arts after four years at Brandeis and graduate with a Master of Arts in International Economics and Finance in just one additional year. Students in this program will study business at the undergraduate level for their first three years at Brandeis, while still having the opportunity to major in any academic area. In typical Brandeis fashion, some students may even choose to double or triple major! During their fourth year of study (senior year), students will begin taking graduate-level coursework toward their MA. This is a direct-admit program, so students admitted into this program do not need to reapply for admission to our graduate program at the International Business. Throughout the 5-year program, our Brandeis International Business Scholars will receive additional advising, access to the IBS Career Development team, networking opportunities with IBS alums, and numerous other resources to further explore the business world. This is truly a wonderful opportunity to take advantage of everything our business program has to offer, while distinguishing yourself for life after Brandeis.
