WMU offers more than 30 Accelerated Graduate Degree Programs (ADGPs)

The accelerated graduate degree pathway allows eligible WMU undergraduate students the opportunity to get a jumpstart on their master's degree by enrolling in graduate courses while they are still in their junior or senior year.

Students who are admitted into an AGDP can double count up to 12 credit hours of graduate coursework in both their graduate and undergraduate degrees, and they pay undergraduate tuition for those credits. Earning 12 credits through the accelerated pathway can help students to quickly move through their graduate program requirements.

View the full list of accelerated programs at wmich.edu/grad/academics/accelerated-programs. The Graduate College is available to help faculty and staff who advise students on AGDP options. 

Reminder: Feb. 1 is the deadline for June, August and December 2023 graduation applications

Once the deadline has passed, students may submit a late application for an additional fee or apply for the next available graduation term. Earlier this week, the Registrar's Office mailed a postcard to eligible students. More information regarding the communication cycle will be shared in the next edition of EM News. Please contact John Scott with questions.

Fall 2023 and spring 2024 registration calendars now available
