Secondary Education

The Fast Track program is designed to enable Tech undergraduates to accumulate up to six (6) credit hours of graduate coursework, to satisfy both undergraduate and graduate degree requirements, while still pursuing their undergraduate degree.

The Fast Track option is currently for selected concentrations (please consult your advisor).

Fast Track Forms

Please visit the College of Graduate Studies for these current forms:

• Fast Track Acceptance Form
• Fast Track Course Credit Form
  

The coursework enables an efficient graduate program transition with the potential for accelerated completion; courses must be taken at Tennessee Tech. 

Minimum Admission Requirements for Fast Track

• Enrolled as an undergraduate with at least 90 hours of completed courses within their program of study;
• Overall GPA of at least 3.25 or better;
• Recommendation from the student’s undergraduate advisor;
• Course approval from the appropriate graduate faculty member or advisor.

Please Note

In addition to the requirements for admission to the Fast Track BS/MA program, all requirements for admission to the graduate program must also be met upon graduation. Meeting these minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to the graduate program.

Program participants should consult with their undergraduate and/or future graduate advisor regarding appropriate graduate courses to take and must earn a minimum grade of “B” in the graduate courses in order to apply them to their M.A. program of study.
