What is Gordon Plus?

Gordon College undergraduate students can opt in to the Gordon Plus program–a unique opportunity for undergraduate students to get a head start on certain master's degrees. If you have space in your 12–20 credit semester, meet GPA requirements, and are approved by the program director, you are eligible to take graduate-level courses as part of your regular schedule. That means you’ll save time, save money, and graduate ahead of the game.
