BS/MS Combined Degree Stipend
BS/MS Combined Degree Stipend
What is the stipend rate for those pursuing a combined BS/MS program. I was just accepted and am wondering how much my stipend will increase. Thanks!
Re: BS/MS Combined Degree Stipend
I just finished phase one of the program and completed a BS/MS degree. My yearly stipend went from $25k to $33k after starting my Master's. BUT when you complete your BS and the degree is conferred, make sure you email your cohort admin and let them know that you want your raise and provide proof of your degree. I was waiting for it to happen automatically and lost ~3 months of increased pay that I never saw.

I assume that, if there is no delay in the on-boarding process at the SF for phase II, if both degrees (BS & MS) are conferred on the same date, there is no effective stipend increase.
Re: BS/MS Combined Degree Stipend
Not true, if you can get a letter from your school saying that you have completed all BS requirements then you can get the increase, even if you haven't had the degree conferred. Thats what happened to me. Also, i also lost 3 months of upped pay because of delays in getting everything signed and stamped and sent in. Do it as fast as possibleGuest wrote:I assume that, if there is no delay in the on-boarding process at the SF for phase II, if both degrees (BS & MS) are conferred on the same date, there is no effective stipend increase.
