Accelerated Dual Degrees
Our Dual-Degree options make it easier to get both an undergraduate and graduate degree in a shorter amount of time. We’ve partnered with Campbell Law School and Meredith College.
Students who enroll in these programs can get a Bachelor’s degree + MBA in five years and a Bachelor’s + law degree in just six years.
- Criminal Justice (BA) + Juris Doctor (JD)
- Pre-Law (BA) + JD
- Political Science (BA) + JD
- Bachelor’s + MBA
In this program, you earn a bachelor’s degree from Peace and a J.D. from Campbell Law School. Once admitted into the 3+3 program, you will complete the majority of your undergraduate degree at Peace for the first three years. The fourth year of your undergraduate degree will be spent at Campbell Law taking first-year law classes. Those law classes will transfer back to Peace to complete the remainder of your credit for the bachelor’s degree.
During a student’s senior year at Peace, if admitted the student may take up to six credit hours at Meredith College in the MBA program. Those credits will count for both the undergraduate and graduate degrees.
Peace students can have any undergraduate major. However, some of the prerequisites for the Meredith MBA are already part of the curriculum in the business-related majors. If you’re studying something without any business classes, you can work with your advisor to see where you may be able to fit the prerequisite courses in your academic plan.
If you are a new student, let the Office of Academic and Career Advising know that you are interested as soon as possible so they can help you plan a course schedule to keep you on track for the program should you choose to pursue it.
The 3+3 program does not require a specific undergraduate major and you are welcome to choose any major that you are interested in. The most common majors that students may choose within this program are Pre-Law, Political Science, or Criminal Justice. Discuss with your advisor major options that fit your interests and future plans.
While an undergraduate student at Peace, you pay Peace tuition with any financial aid that you qualify for as usual.
With the MBA program, the six credits of Meredith MBA courses taken during the senior year are included. Once you graduate from Peace and enter the Meredith MBA program full-time, you pay those tuition and fees directly to Meredith. Similarly, during your third year at Peace, you will pay Peace for tuition. Once you transfer to Campbell full-time, you will pay tuition and fees directly to the law school.
