Combined BS/MS Programs
The BS/MS program gives academically successful undergraduates the opportunity to pursue the MS degree while completing their BS degree, representing both a time and cost savings.
- The entire dual degree program can be completed in five years, as three 400-level courses, taken as a senior, count toward both the bachelor's degree and the master's degree.
- The application fee is waived for BS/MS applicants, and there is an additional financial benefit: the double-counted courses are billed only once, at the undergraduate tuition rate.
Two recommendation letters from department faculty are required.
For More Information
Current Loyola students are encouraged to apply during their junior year and should discuss the timing with the Graduate Program Directors, Drs. Aaron Lauve (for Math), Timothy O'Brien (for Applied Stat), or Yasin Silva (for Data Science).
