With Texas Wesleyan’s Fifth-Year Option program, you can put yourself on the right track towards completing your bachelor’s and MBA in just five years. More opportunities will be opened to you and your salary can become even more lucrative with a master’s degree — we’re talking up to $40,000 more a year. Even if you ultimately decide not to pursue the Fifth-Year Option, being on a path to grad school can open up new doors and opportunities to you while you are still in school.
