The Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences and NSU’s Criminal Justice Institute initiated a dual admission program in criminal justice in late April.

NSU offers dual admission programs in more than 20 fields that allow highly qualified students to apply to the NSU graduate or professional school of their choice at the same time they apply to the undergraduate studies program. The programs reserves seats in graduate school for participating students, who then must maintain established academic criteria throughout their undergraduate careers. Dual admission programs relieve some of the pressure faced by undergraduates while also encouraging them to pursue a diversity of interests inside, and outside, of their intended career goals.
