Fast-Track Your Success
With our accelerated programs, you can earn both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in less time. This way, you’ll spend less time in the classroom and more time working your dream job.
Secure Your Spot
Once you’re accepted into an accelerated program, space in the graduate program is reserved for you, so when you finish the undergraduate program, you can jump right into the next phase of your education.
Save Some Money
Pursuing higher education doesn’t have to break the bank. In fact, 98% of our undergraduate students receive some form of financial aid. And when you’re in an accelerated program, less time means less money spent.
Make New Connections
At Detroit Mercy, small classroom sizes mean bigger connections between students and faculty. When you enroll in an accelerated program, you’ll have the chance to work with industry professionals every step of the way. These relationships will help you secure a job upon graduation.
The classes are rigorous and have introduced me to the content I will see in law school. The strong relationships I have built with my professors made it easy to get great letters of recommendation, LSAT studying support and proofreaders for my application materials.

At »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ, I was able to delve into research alongside faculty. I now have four research publications, forever connections with my professors and an amazing academic portfolio I am sure graduate schools will love as much as I do.
