The University of Virginia's English Department provides eligible English majors with an accelerated five-year BA/MA degree pathway. Qualified third-year students must apply by May 18 for program consideration. Accepted candidates will enroll in two graduate-level courses (5000 or 8000 level) during their senior undergraduate year, along with the fall semester's ENGL 8800 (Research Methods Introduction). As MA candidates the following year, they'll complete ENGL 8800 plus six more graduate courses while meeting degree distribution criteria. Participants must also finish either a critical thesis, pedagogical thesis, or oral examination, plus satisfy language requirements. To achieve the Graduate School's 30-credit mandate, students register for three ENGL 8999 research credits while developing their thesis or preparing for exams under faculty guidance.

Qualification Requirements
High School Transcripts.
Typically, the most important factor in the admission evaluation process is demonstrated academic achievement in a challenging secondary school program.
The admission committee looks for applicants who have completed the most rigorous academic courses available in their secondary schools and recommends that prospective students should exceed minimum high school graduation requirements. We require an official transcript. The secondary program should include no fewer than 16 academic courses and must include the following courses:
English 4 units
Mathematics 4 units
Foreign Language 2 units
Science (from among biology, chemistry, and physics) 2 units (*)
Social Studies 1 unit
A TOEFL or IELTS score should not be more than two years old. Depending on the school, most admitted graduate students attain a minimum total score of 90 on the internet-based (iBT) TOEFL (including sectional minimums of 22 in speaking, 22 in writing, 23 in reading and 23 in listening). The minimum paper-based TOEFL score requirement is usually 600, and the minimum IELTS score requirement is 7.0.
