<p>I heard there is a program that let you finish master with just 5 years, can anyone really finish it with just 5 years with all the budget cut?</p>
<p>And I am talking about cal poly slo</p>
<p>Yes, it is possible to finish in 5 years. I even know some students (Biomedical engineering), who are finishing their BS in 3 1/2 years. When you do the 4+1 (depending on what major you choose), you may have graduate standing. As a graduate student, you get to choose classes a few days before the undergraduate students do, so it is likely that you will get into the classes you need.</p>
