The Department of History offers intensive, accelerated combined
degree programs leading to the B.A. and M.A. degrees in five years
of full-time study. Qualified undergraduate students who will
have completed 60 credits with a 3.0 cumulative index and a 3.5
index for 12 credits in history are encouraged to apply.
Students in the B.A./M.A. program matriculate for a total of 147
credits, 33 of which are on the graduate level. Those
electing the thesis option must complete 6 credits of Master’s
Research (HIS 900). Students choosing the non-thesis option
complete 6 credits of coursework in lieu of HIS 900.

The combined degree joining a B.A. in History in St. John’s
College and the Master of Business in the Tobin College of Business
are designed to provide students with the opportunity to complete
their undergraduate and graduate degrees at St. John’s University
within five years. Students who meet the selection criteria
for acceptance into the combined degree program after their junior
year can apply that summer. They must demonstrate their ability to
meet the same entrance requirements as for all Tobin College of
Business graduate programs: (a) an overall B (3.0) average in their
undergraduate courses, (b) a B (3.0) average in the business core
courses, and (c) a satisfactory GMAT score. They will be able to
take up to seven (7) graduate courses in the senior year that can
be applied to both the bachelor’s degree, which they would receive
at the end of the fourth year, and the master’s degree, which would
be conferred at the completion of the program in the fifth
year.
