Qualified College students may receive both a bachelor's and a master's degree in mathematics concurrently at the end of their studies in the College. Qualification consists of satisfying all requirements of both degrees in mathematics. While only a few students complete the joint bachelor's/master's program, many undergraduates enroll in graduate-level mathematics courses. Admission to all mathematics graduate courses requires prior written consent of the director of undergraduate studies. This consent is based on an assessment by the director that it is in the student's best interest to enroll in the graduate course.

To be considered for admission, students must: (1) complete all general education (core) requirements prior to their expected first quarter in the joint degree program, (2) provide a copy of their Stellic report showing completed and in-progress courses as part of their application materials, and (3) meet with the appropriate contact in the MS program as required per that graduate program.

Students should submit their application for the joint program to one of the co-directors of undergraduate studies in the Department of Mathematics as soon as possible, but no later than the Winter Quarter of their third year. For more information, contact John Boller, co-director of undergraduate studies, at boller@uchicago.edu.
