Graduate Programs
Our globally acclaimed graduate programs prepare students for life after the Carroll School鈥攆or successful careers as influential managers, inspirational leaders, and innovative academics.听
Both our full-time and part-time MBA options offer rigorous academics, equipping students with the knowledge and skills to thrive in an increasingly complex business world.
In the cross-functional world of global business, professionals with expertise in more than one discipline are in great demand, and a dual degree can provide a distinct career advantage.
The Carroll School of Management offers several dual-degree programs in collaboration with other schools and programs.
Applying to Dual-Degree Programs
- Students are generally able to complete the requirements of a dual-degree program in significantly less time than it would take to pursue each program separately.
- To apply for a dual-degree program, students must apply to both programs (and both schools, if applicable).
- The admissions committee strongly recommends that dual-degree applications are submitted by January.

Dual Degrees Within the Carroll School
Applicants only need to submit one application when applying to a Carroll School dual-degree program. Even though you will be submitting one application, you may still be considered for each program separately. It is possible to receive different decisions for different programs.
Options Within the Carroll School:
- MBA/MSA: Available only on a full-time basis
- MBA/MSF: Available on both a full-time and part-time basis

Dual Degrees with Other Schools at Boston College
Dual-degree programs with other schools are designed to be completed on a full-time basis. Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit MBA applications by January.
Options with Other Schools at Boston College:
Important Note: Students must first be enrolled in a partner program before submitting an application to the MBA program.听
For candidates applying to both the MBA program and another Boston College school, applying to programs at the same time does not secure dual-degree status. If admitted to both programs for the same term, students must choose to enroll in one program, as MBA admission cannot be deferred to a future term.
- JD/MBA: Candidates should first enroll in the Law School and then apply to the MBA program during their second year of law school.
- MBA/MSW: Candidates should first enroll in the School of Social Work and then apply to the MBA program during their first year in the MSW program.
- MBA/MA in Higher Education or MBA/MA in Theology & Ministry: Candidates should first enroll in their specific schools and then apply to the MBA program during the first year of their Master鈥檚 program.
