Accelerated Program/Combined Program Pathways Applicants
Daytona Beach & Prescott Campus Only
Accelerated Programs, also referred to as Combined Program Pathways, are designed to allow qualified students to begin graduate level coursework while still completing the bachelor’s degree, thus finishing both degrees in a shorter time. In some cases, these degrees allow for the crossing of disciplines — earning a B.S. in one field and an M.S. in another, which gives graduates a versatility and breadth of knowledge sought by employers in today’s job market.
A student who has earned a minimum of 75 credit hours with at least a 3.00 CGPA may apply for admission through the Graduate Admissions office. The application must accompany two letters of recommendation from ERAU faculty to indicate (1) the applicant’s potential to successfully complete graduate-level work, and (2) evidence that the applicant has attained the foundational competencies for graduate degree studies. A list of all programs offered can be found here.
Some programs may have additional requirements, including higher minimum credit hours, higher GPA requirements, and other documentation needed. Please see below for a list of the combined program pathways that have additional requirements. If the combined program pathway is not listed below, then it does not have additional requirements.
