Mason undergraduates are eligible to apply to this bachelor's/accelerated master's program, which allows them to obtain both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree within an accelerated time frame. The program also offers the advantage of paying undergraduate tuition rates for graduate classes taken while finishing the bachelor’s degree, with some graduate classes able to count towards both degrees.
Our MS in educational psychology with a concentration in assessment, evaluation, and testing prepares graduates to design and implement effective educational programs that are appropriate for a broad range of cultural contexts and that meet the needs of diverse populations.
