In case you missed it…
- Last Friday, we posted a spotlight on the English Department’s BA + MA Combined Degree Programs (BA/MALP, BA/MAWP, and BA/Secondary Education English). For any undergraduates who may be thinking of pursuing an English graduate degree at DePaul, this program saves time, allowing students to graduate with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in as little as five years; it also saves students nearly 40% on grad school tuition.
