Ursinus College and St. Joseph’s University have expanded its direct-admission partnership to offer more programs to Ursinus students seeking an advanced degree after graduation.
Under a longstanding agreement, Ursinus students could apply for direct admission to St. Joseph’s University’s Erivan K. Haub School of Business to pursue an MBA or other master’s degree in a variety of disciplines. The expanded program builds upon the agreement and presents Ursinus graduates with second-degree and certificate program opportunities at St. Joseph’s College of Arts and Sciences and School of Health Studies and Education.
The Ursinus students must successfully complete a four-year undergraduate degree at Ursinus, as well as undergraduate prerequisites while meeting admission requirements for St. Joseph’s University. The pact also includes a 10 percent tuition discount for all Ursinus graduates who are accepted to St. Joseph’s.

As a continuation of a partnership that has spanned more than 30 years, Ursinus seniors and recent graduates are eligible for the following benefits from St. Joseph’s:
- Waivers for foundational courses that they have already taken at Ursinus, which can reduce costs of obtaining some degrees and certificates by more than $5,000,
- Merit scholarships
- Waivers of the GMAT or GRE admission requirements if they obtained a GPA of 3.20 or higher from Ursinus,
- Waiver of the application fee.
The agreement also includes 27 different graduate certificate programs, including those previously offered at the Haub School of Business. Learn more about St. Joseph’s University Graduate Programs and Certificates
