The model plan for the 4+1 program is attached. The accelerated program allows students who are accepted into the accelerated program to take up to 12 credit hours of graduate courses in their 4th year of undergrad. The undergrad program doesn't change in an accelerated program; rather the Grad Council updated policy so that for accelerated programs the graduate courses will double count for both the undergrad and grad degrees. Prior to this, it was prohibited for graduate credit to double count in any situation. In many situations (not all) the 12 credit hours that double count is 4000/5000 level courses and students will take them as 5000 level. For many programs, it is simply combining the existing undergrad with the existing grad program without any changes to the curriculum. Most universities have 4+1 programs within their portfolio, so it is not new, and it is very popular with students.
