How to Apply for Direct Entry
Students who complete Stonehill’s undergraduate admission process through the Common Application and express an interest in direct entry, will be provided instructions on how and where to complete a supplemental application.
They will have the opportunity to take up to two graduate-level courses as an undergraduate, which count toward requirements for both degrees.
Dedicated advising will help you stay on track but completing two degrees in an accelerated format requires students to be well organized and driven. Depending on the number of Advanced Placement credits and high school dual-enrollment courses taken, students in the program may be required to take courses during winter break and/or summer sessions.
Eligibility
Students must maintain an overall 3.0 GPA in their undergraduate program to remain in the program.
