Three-Two Program (M.Ed.)

"Can you tell me about TCU's five year program that combines an undergraduate degree with a master's?"

The 3-2 program in Education enables you to graduate with both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree, in only five years.

  • Combine a B.A. in English with a master's degree in Education (M.Ed).

    Available only to TCU undergraduates, the Three-Two Option allows outstanding students to combine a bachelor's degree with the Master of Education (M.Ed.) in only five years.

    Students are eligible to apply for admission to the Graduate Program in the School of Education during the semester they complete 90 hours of undergraduate coursework. To be considered for admission to the Three-Two Option students must submit a Graduate Program Application for Admission form. Only Three-Two Option candidates demonstrating superior undergraduate academic performance and strong recommendation will be considered for admission.

    If admitted to the Three-Two Option, the student may complete up to 12 semester hours of the M.Ed. program during the fourth year of undergraduate study. Candidates should work with their undergraduate advisor to determine how the courses will apply to the undergraduate degree. At the end of the fourth year, assuming that all other graduation requirements are met, the student earns his or her Baccalaureate degree. During their fifth year, the student completes the remaining semester hours toward the M.Ed. degree.

    Students intending to pursue the Three-Two Program should make their plans known as early as possible to the School of Education to ensure proper advising.

    Other details are available at the School of Education website.
