Sessions For: School of Information

Are you a current UMSI BSI student interested in earning your master’s degree faster?
The Accelerated Master’s Degree Program (AMDP) allows eligible BSI students to earn a UMSI master’s degree in just one additional year after completing their bachelor's degree.

Join one of our virtual AMDP Information Sessions to learn how you can continue your education at UMSI and deepen your expertise in the information field—quickly and efficiently.

Each session includes:



An introduction to the AMDP and an overview of the curriculum


Information about the application process, deadlines, and requirements


Live Q&A with a member of the UMSI admissions team



Whether you’re starting to explore your options or preparing to apply this year, these sessions are designed to help you determine if AMDP is the right next step for you.

We encourage every student interested in or contemplating an undergraduate degree at the School of Information to attend an information session. You will receive an engaging and comprehensive overview of the program, as well as guidance for the application process. Sessions are hosted on different days and times to accommodate as many students as possible, and you only need to attend one session before you apply.
These information sessions are for students currently in their junior or senior year of high school.

We’re excited to invite you to an application workshop designed to help you strengthen your BSI application and stand out during the admissions process! These events will provide valuable insights and hands-on support to differentiate your application.



The workshop will begin with an application workshop packet provided by our team, including a resume, essay, and supplemental materials guide to support you during the application process. We will share a brief presentation with BSI program details and essential application information, followed by an open Q&A to address any general questions that remain. The majority of the event will be designated for direct application support, where you will be able to sign up for a 5-minute 1:1 session with a member of our admissions team to ask your individual application questions.


In-person application workshops have a maximum capacity, so students who are unable to attend the whole event should not register and should attend a virtual workshop instead.
