Through an evaluation of college-ready credits (e.g., advanced placement and international baccalaureate), these high-achieving students are fast-tracked for admission to the Lundquist College of Business one full year before their contemporaries.

Qualified finance students can choose to enroll as 3+1 Finance Scholars, an accelerated program which allows students to complete both their bachelor's degree and the master of science in finance (MSF) degree in four years.
By fast-tracking students through the undergraduate curriculum and allowing them to use the fourth year to pursue a master's degree, the 3+1 Finance Scholar program maximizes the value to students' careers while they are in college. It's a win-win. The MSF program emphasizes valuation and asset management and is ideal for those targeting a coveted career as a financial analyst—whether at a "sell-side" investment firm evaluating specific sectors or industries, a "buy-side" investment house managing its own funds, an investment bank, or a corporate finance department. Plus, the MSF is STEM certified and a CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) Institute recognized program. The curriculum is designed to provide students with insights from state-of-the-art theoretical and empirical research in finance while actively engaging in quarterly professional development seminars.
