Concurrent Enrollment

What is concurrent enrollment?

The concurrent BS/MS classification offers an opportunity for well-qualified Iowa State juniors and seniors to begin working on a master’s degree before completing a bachelor’s degree.

How to declare concurrent enrollment

To obtain the new form, please go to: Concurrent Enrollment for Undergraduate Student Wishing to Pursue a Graduate Certificate or Degree

The process works as follows:

1. A student will contact the graduate department of choice and provide that program with the items needed for an admissions decision, along with the partially completed concurrent form.
2. The program will make an admissions recommendation and the DOGE will sign the form, indicating the admissions status and term/year of admission.
3. The form must then be approved by the undergraduate department and the undergraduate college.
4. The form must be delivered to the Graduate College, which will review the admissions recommendation and make an admissions decision.
5. That decision will be relayed to the Office of Admissions, which will officially admit the student and notify the Office of the Registrar of the new graduate concurrent status.
6. Programs and the student will also be notified of the final decision at this point.
7. All other requirements for the concurrent degree (double-counting courses, transfer of credits, etc.) remain the same.
