Accelerated Master's Track in Art Education
If you are a current undergraduate student at the University of South Carolina and you have 90 credits and at least a 3.4 GPA, you may be able to take up to 12 credits towards a master's degree while you’re still an undergraduate student. Participating in the accelerated master's program is a separate process from applying to graduate school, and it does not guarantee admission to graduate school. However, accelerated master's students who apply to graduate school at UofSC and are accepted are able to start their graduate program in art education with up to 12 credits already completed. These students complete their graduate coursework earlier, saving time and tuition.
Students who are interested in the accelerated master’s track in art education should speak to their undergraduate advisor.
