I’ve been admitted to the BA/MA program but I’ve changed my mind about which program I want to pursue. Am I allowed to transfer to a different graduate program at SIS?
It is extremely important to make sure that you know which MA program you want to pursue before you submit your application. Once you’ve been accepted to a MA program, it is possible to transfer programs, but program transfers are neither automatic nor guaranteed. Additionally, credits double-counted or reserved for the program to which you were initially admitted may not transfer to your new graduate program. BA/MA students are only eligible to apply to transfer programs after completing at least 9 credits of graduate-level coursework after being admitted to the BA/MA program. Students interested in applying for a program transfer should consult their graduate academic advisor to review their options and discuss the program transfer application.
