A Bachelor’s & A Master’s in Education

Seton Hill University and The University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg have established a partnership that allows undergraduate students majoring in education at Pitt-Greensburg to move right into Seton Hill’s Master of Arts in Special Education program upon graduating from Pitt-Greensburg.

Taking Master’s Courses As An Undergrad

Pitt-Greensburg education majors who are juniors and seniors and meet the established criteria will also have the opportunity to cross-register for up to two Seton Hill graduate-level courses as an undergraduate, as Seton Hill undergraduate students already do. These courses will not replace any undergraduate courses but will provide an opportunity for students to complete six of the 30 graduate credits prior to graduating from their undergraduate program.

Pitt-Greensburg undergraduate students desiring to cross-register for graduate-level courses must be a junior or senior in good standing, have a 3.0 minimum cumulative GPA, provide an official college transcript to the Seton Hill Graduate Program Director for review, receive approval from Seton Hill’s Graduate Program Director or Education Division Chair, and complete the appropriate forms for cross registration.

Pitt-Greensburg professors and academic advisors will advise bachelor’s degree students of the opportunity to apply to the Seton Hill Master of Arts in Special Education program. Seton Hill Education Program faculty will provide advising sessions at Pitt-Greensburg each semester with the purpose of offering a letter of intent. Students are under no obligation to commit to the program, but the letter of intent acts as a seat holder and provides an indication of the number of Pitt-Greensburg students interested in entering the program.
