Programs available to all students
The Combined Bachelor’s/Master’s Degree programs allow acceleration toward graduate study and are intended for highly motivated candidates who wish to pursue an advanced degree. These programs permit undergraduate students to study for their master's degree while also studying for their bachelor's degree.
Undergraduate students at Case Western Reserve University have the opportunity to pursue both the Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science (BS) degree and the Master of Accountancy (MAcc) degree. The integrated program is open to students pursuing any undergraduate major, though students majoring in or with a secondary major in accounting are able to complete both degrees in the shortest amount of time.
These programs allow qualified CWRU undergraduates to work towards the completion of a specialty master's degree from the Weatherhead School of Management during their undergraduate studies, thereby enabling completion of both degrees in a shorter period of time.
Students who are candidates for the BA and who are admitted to professional studies in Case Western Reserve University by the end of the junior year are offered an opportunity to shorten their entire course of studies by one year through the Senior Year in Professional Studies privilege.
Note: The former Senior Year in Professional Studies Programs for the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing and the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences have been moved to the Combined Bachelor’s/Master’s Degrees Program.
Students who are candidates for the BA degree and are offered admission to a medical or dental school other than those at Case Western Reserve University at the end of the junior year are eligible for an opportunity to shorten their entire course of studies by one year through the Senior Year in absentia privilege.

The Pre-Professional Scholars Programs in Medicine and Dentistry grant to a few entering first-year undergraduates conditional commitments of admission to the corresponding professional school at Case Western Reserve University. These commitments are honored upon successful completion of the requirements established by each professional school. Prospective students who wish to apply to either of the Pre-Professional Scholars Programs should do so through the Office of Undergraduate Admission.
