Dual Degree - Bachelor of Arts - Strategic Communication, Public Relations & Advertising & Master of Arts - Sports Communication and Media (4 + 1)

Students apply to the dual degree program as incoming freshmen and are admitted directly into the Sports Communication & Media graduate program at the same time as their admission as undergraduate students. Dual degree students are guaranteed a place in the Master of Arts in Sports Communication & Media (SCM) program provided they continue, as undergraduate students, to meet program-specific criteria to progress into enrollment in the graduate program. Dual degree students, therefore, have a space reserved for them in the graduate program beginning in their first year, with clear criteria and achievements required to progress into the graduate program.

Combined with advisement from their undergraduate academic advisor, participation in activities and programs offered by the School of Communication, Media & the Arts and the Sports Communication program provides strong support toward successful progression into graduate study.
