A.B./M.A. at Bryn Mawr

The A.B./M.A. Degree Program at Bryn Mawr College, a partnership with our own Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, is available in the following subjects:

• Chemistry
• Classical and Near Eastern Archaeology
• French
• Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies
• History of Art
• Mathematics
• Physics

Students in this program complete the same requirements for each degree as would students who undertake the A.B. and then the M.A. sequentially but are offered the unique opportunity to work towards both degrees concurrently and to count up to two courses towards both degrees.

After a student has been accepted into the program and throughout the first four years of study, they remain an "undergraduate" with respect to tuition, housing, organized student activities, and honor code, giving them a close-knit community of support. If you complete your baccalaureate degree after four years and continue to work on your master's for a fifth year, you must become a fully matriculated student in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences subject to all its regulations for that year. This means in your fifth year you will need to pay graduate tuition and fees.
