The Academic Accelerator Program (AAP) is a two-semester program designed specifically for students who are ready to succeed in immersive English-speaking classrooms, but who also want the benefit of English-language and student support to help them thrive. The program curriculum offers a balance of university-wide and Academic Accelerator Program exclusive courses, with English-language course supplements that equip students with the practical, subject-specific vocabulary and skills they need to excel in their coursework. Students may enter the program in the spring, summer or fall. Upon completion of the program, students progress into the second year of their undergraduate education with a full year’s worth of academic credits.
The Bachelor of Arts degree in Physics offers a flexible program that allows students to combine the study of physics with the opportunity to do intensive work in substantive areas such as liberal arts, teaching, business or law. The Physics Bachelor of Arts degree is especially recommended for students who plan to double major with another department in the College of Arts and Sciences.
