MPA Fast Track Program
MPA Fast Track students can earn up to six (6) advanced standing credits from their undergraduate degree, enabling them to complete an MPA at Rutgers SPAA in one calendar year.
The MPA Fast Track program partners with select four-year institutions, granting their undergraduate alumni up to six (6) advanced standing credits within SPAA’s MPA program. SPAA and the institutions collaborate on an approved advanced standing course list. To earn six (6) credits of advanced standing in the MPA program, students from partner institutions must complete twelve (12) credits from the approved list of BA/BS courses with a grade of B+ or better. To earn three (3) credits of advanced standing in the MPA program, students must complete six (6) credits from the approved list of BA/BS courses with a grade of B+ or better.
SPAA is proud to announce Montclair State University (MSU) as our first MPA Fast Track program partner. See below to view the approved MPA Fast Track program courses from MSU.
