USA: Boston University Global Graduate Certificate and Diploma Programs

BU Global Master's Track Diploma and Certificate Programs continue to offer students in-depth, industry specific, semester long graduate programs. Shorter in duration and more specialized than most degree programs, our programs have helped hundreds of students from around the world advance their careers.

Students may opt for an *Advanced Track*, which includes a *for-credit internship during the semester following any certificate or diploma.* These internships are typically unpaid. BU Global students who participate in the Internship Program make important professional contacts and enhance their skills while establishing themselves as capable international leaders.

In addition to the Advanced Track, all diploma and certificate students who want to continue their education after receiving a BU Global graduate certificate or diploma can apply to pursue the *Master's Track*, where they can apply to transfer up to *24* credits they earned at BU Global toward a master's degree at Boston University's
Metropolitan College.

On advisement from the Boston University International Student and Scholars Office (ISSO), the application deadline for Spring 2010 programs is *November 15, 2009. *

Because visa processing times vary from country to country, students seeking to apply for any of these programs should be advised to check with the US embassy in their country of residence. Doing so early in the application process can ensure that adequate time is budgeted for application review and visa processing.

Sincerely,

Kate
