Psychology, B.A./M.A.

Joint BA/MA Accelerated Degree Program in Psychology

The accelerated degree program is designed to be completed in one year beyond the BA degree. Students in the program must enroll at Claremont Graduate University for at least 32 units. Ordinarily students in the accelerated program will begin taking graduate courses in their Senior Year. CGU will grant up to 16 units of graduate credit (the equivalent of four full Pitzer courses) for advanced undergraduate course work at Pitzer College. To complete the accelerated MA degree in one year, students must complete at least 8-units of graduate credit at CGU during their Senior year at Pitzer. Ordinarily this would include one core course and either 4-units of statistics or methodology courses. Specific requirements for this program can be obtained from a member of the psychology field group.
