Direct Admission Program for Business Master's Degrees

Use the direct admission simplified application to apply for a Business Master's Degree

做厙輦⑹ is proud to offer high-achieving KSU business majors with junior-standing (60 credits) a simplified admissions application into a business master's program. Students applying to any of the Direct Admission programs are encouraged to apply for a combined undergraduate/graduate degree program. This option allows up to 9 credit hours of graduate coursework to double count toward both an undergraduate and graduate degree. Students can comfortably complete their bachelors degree and master's degree within five years.

Please note that the Direct Admission program does not guarantee admission, but rather is a simplified admissions application that waives:

  • Graduate school application fees
  • Application essay  
  • Letters of recommendation

Admitted students may defer the start of their master's program for one year following the completion of their undergraduate degree.
