What do you think of the Bachelors/Masters combo?

<p>Does anyone know about UF's Bachelors/Masters program, where the students work on both degrees at the same time? After my freshman son completes Summer B, he'll have 26 credits. (Including his high school AP credits and dual enrollment credits.) That's a pretty good start, and it would be great if he could graduate with his masters degree in four years, but not if it takes a rediculous workload and too much stress to complete it. Thank you very much for your input.

<p>I'm thinking about the same thing...</p>

<p>I have 22 credits from my AP's, and I'm taking 16 credits first semester.
If anyone has info about this program, please share.</p>

<p>I don't have much information but I'm going to get to UF with like 40something credits and am considering getting a bs in statistics and ms in finance in four years. I'm worried it will be too rushed and not leave enough room for electives though.</p>

<p>I thought you could not start with more than 30 credits. My daughter's AP credits total 64, but we were told 30 is the maximum you can start with.</p>

<p>yep, 30 is the most you can have. How the hell can you get 64 though, that's obscene. I took the most AP's offered at my school and only had mid to high 30's I think.</p>

<p>I don't know--she had 13 AP classes and I guess depending on the number of credits awarded, that's how it was figured out. It doesn't matter since 30 is what she'll go in with.</p>

<p>That sounds about right. My S had 6 APs and received the max 30 transfer credits. But knowledge acquired is always a good thing, and her learning quest will open up more vista in college.</p>

<p>I guess your school must just offer more than mine did, I had 7 I believe</p>

<p>I'm in 3/2 BS MS combined accounting program....definitely don't recommand anyone take more than one class wich Bussines Process 1&2...after that, life back to normal....I have straight A except BP 1&2....really wish somebody told me before I was Junior.</p>

<p>I know that for the CISE department in order to do the BS/MS combined degree program they have certain pre-reqs. They require a 3.3 GPA and a test score. If you attain the minimum pre-reqs, in your last semester, instead of taking undergraduate courses, you would take graduate courses. The credit earned during that semester goes towards both the bachelors and masters degree. Of course, this still means another semester of graduate courses in order to meet the requiremed credit hours for a masters degree.</p>
