November 20, 2009, Newsletter Issue #266: Cutting College Costs

Tip of the Week

Combine degrees to save time and money. If youīre planning to earn multiple degrees, you can save a yearīs tuition by enrolling in a combined degree program. Some schools will allow you to combine a bachelorīs degree with a masterīs degree or a masterīs degree with a doctoral degree. Some colleges may offer a program that combines a bachelorīs degree with an M.D. Other colleges offer an accelerated 3-year program, or will allow you to graduate early if you complete all the requirements ahead of schedule. You can do this by taking a somewhat heavier load, such as an extra course every semester, or by taking classes during the summer. Some schools do not charge extra tuition for taking additional classes.
