Who Is Eligible for an Accelerated 4+1 Program?

Generally, students can qualify for an accelerated program if they are part of one of the below student cohorts:

  1. International Business School Scholars Program: The Scholars Program is an advising and networking cohort of Brandeis undergraduates who are exploring business school. Scholars can denote interest in the program via their undergraduate application, or can join this cohort at any time during their undergraduate studies by contacting the Admissions team. Any junior who applies to a graduate program will also be considered a member of the Scholars Program.
  2. STEM and/or Economics Majors/Minors: Undergraduates with majors (or minors) in Business, Economics, Computer Science, Math, Finance or a related STEM-field will most likely qualify for an applicable accelerated program. 

Each student is unique and our goal is to help you find the program that best aligns with your interests. We encourage any interested Brandeis undergraduate to email globaladmissions@brandeis.edu to discuss their goals and determine accelerated program eligibility.

What Happens After I Apply?

Admissions will review your application and confirm your admission after a brief review period. If you are part of our Scholars program or have a STEM major or minor at Brandeis, you will likely qualify for an accelerated 4+1 program based on your transfer credit eligibility. This option allows you to complete your degree at an even faster pace. We’ll notify you of your eligibility at the time of admission.

Are Scholarships Available?

All admitted students receive a guaranteed 25 percent Alumni Scholarship. For students entering their graduate program in Fall 2025, Brandeis International Business School will ensure that students receive at least $35,000 in scholarship funding (inclusive and not in addition to this 25 percent scholarship.) Up to full tuition scholarships are available.

When Do I Enroll?

You won’t need to submit an enrollment deposit until April of your senior year, giving you time to plan your coursework and make your final decision.

Juniors can apply early to get a head start, but you have until your senior year to commit.
