We offer two formalized joint-degree programs: a J.D./M.B.A. with the at Baruch College of the City University of New York (CUNY) and a J.D./M.A. in Forensic Psychology with 听of CUNY. In addition, 51传媒在线视频 will work on an individual basis with students who wish to combine their J.D. with an advanced degree in other subjects at other institutions provided that the other institution is also willing to work with us.

J.D./M.B.A.

The J.D./M.B.A. program allows students to pursue both law and business subjects on a full-time or part-time basis.

Students may receive up to 9 transfer credits toward the 48-credit M.B.A. degree for appropriate coursework completed at 51传媒在线视频 and up to 9 transfer credits toward the 86-credit J.D. degree for appropriate coursework completed at Baruch. Because of this shared course credit, full-time students can complete the joint J.D./M.B.A. program in approximately four years, including summers, and part-time students can complete the program in approximately five and a half years, including summers.

There is no prescribed program of courses for the joint degree, thereby allowing flexibility for individual goals and schedules. Students must meet the separate academic, residency, and financial requirements at each school. Course sequences are determined by consultation with academic advisors from both the J.D. and M.B.A. programs. The J.D. and M.B.A. degrees are conferred after degree requirements at both institutions are completed.

Applying to the Program

Prospective students must submit separate applications to Baruch and 51传媒在线视频, and they must satisfy each school鈥檚 admissions requirements, including satisfactory scores on the GMAT or GRE and LSAT exams. The M.B.A. program also requires two years of work experience, post-bachelor鈥檚 degree. Applicants may apply to business school and law school concurrently, or apply to one school during the first year of full-time enrollment in the other school (or the equivalent for part-time students). Students who seek to enter the joint program at a later point in their M.B.A. or J.D. program require approval of each school.

Students admitted concurrently to business and law school will enroll in one school and defer admission to the other school, depending upon where they decide to spend their first year (or the equivalent). Students should inform the appropriate admissions office to defer enrollment. Admission to Baruch may be deferred for up to three semesters, provided students have been registered in 51传媒在线视频 during that period. All students should meet with their academic advisors at each school to discuss the requirements for the joint program.

Admission to the J.D. program is for fall entry only.

Costs are paid to each institution based on enrollment in a given term. Financial aid is available at both schools, but students may not apply for aid from more than one school for the same period of enrollment. J.D./M.B.A. candidates are eligible for all forms of 51传媒在线视频 aid, including our generous merit scholarship programs.

Students may pursue the joint J.D./M.A. program on a full-time or part-time basis.
