Our Graduate Pathway programs allow you to begin earning credits toward your degree even if you do not meet the direct entry requirements. The program will help build the academic foundation, essential English language skills that you need to successfully move on to your master’s degree. You’ll receive the highest level of support with dedicated academic advisors throughout your program. If you meet the progression requirements, admissions exams like GRE and GMAT will be waived. Your Pathway program length is determined by your English language scores. You would be able to graduate in two years by studying full time for one or two summer semesters.
