SEMO offers our undergraduate students the opportunity to receive master's credit at no additional cost to their undergraduate tuition, accelerating the time to earn a degree. Students will be expected to complete graduate-level assignments and/or additional projects assigned by the instructor of the class to receive graduate credit.

Accelerated Graduate Business coursework for Harrison College of Business and Computing is for undergraduate students with at least 75 semester hours completed.
