Penn's "One University Policy" allows students to enroll in classes in any of Penn's twelve schools.<ref name="Meyerson, Martin 1973">Meyerson, Martin (January 29, 1973). "Report of the University Development Commission" (PDF). ''upenn.com''. Retrieved June 16, 2018.</ref>

Penn has a strong focus on interdisciplinary learning and research. It offers double degree programs, unique majors, and academic flexibility. Penn's "One University" policy allows undergraduates access to courses at all of Penn's undergraduate and graduate schools except the medical, veterinary and dental schools. Undergraduates at Penn may also take courses at [[Bryn Mawr College|Bryn Mawr]], [[Haverford College|Haverford]], and [[Swarthmore College|Swarthmore]] under a reciprocal agreement known as the [[Quaker Consortium]].

===Coordinated dual-degree, accelerated, interdisciplinary programs===

Penn offers unique and specialized [[double degree|coordinated dual-degree]] (CDD) programs, which selectively award candidates degrees from multiple schools at the university upon completion of graduation criteria of both schools in addition to program-specific programs and senior capstone projects. Additionally, there are accelerated and interdisciplinary programs offered by the university. These undergraduate programs include:

Dual-degree programs that lead to the same multiple degrees without participation in the specific above programs are also available. Unlike CDD programs, "dual degree" students fulfill requirements of both programs independently without the involvement of another program. Specialized dual-degree programs include Liberal Studies and Technology as well as an Artificial Intelligence: Computer and Cognitive Science Program. Both programs award a degree from the College of Arts and Sciences and a degree from the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Also, the Vagelos Scholars Program in Molecular Life Sciences allows its students to either double major in the sciences or submatriculate and earn both a BA and an MS in four years. The most recent Vagelos Integrated Program in Energy Research (VIPER) was first offered for the class of 2016. A joint program of Penn's School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Engineering and Applied Science, VIPER leads to dual Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in Engineering degrees by combining majors from each school.

For graduate programs, Penn offers many formalized double degree graduate degrees such as a joint J.D./MBA and maintains a list of interdisciplinary institutions, such as the Institute for Medicine and Engineering, the Joseph H. Lauder Institute for Management and International Studies, and the Institute for Research in Cognitive Science.

The [[School of Social Policy and Practice]], commonly known as Penn SP2, is a school of [[social policy]] and [[social work]] that offers degrees in a variety of subfields, in addition to several dual degree programs and sub-matriculation programs.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/programs/index.html|title=SP2 Programs|access-date=May 16, 2020|archive-date=June 22, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140622205941/http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/programs/index.html|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.petersons.com/graduate-schools/university-of-pennsylvania-school-of-social-policy-and-practice-program-in-social-work-000_10013879.aspx|title=Peterson's National Guide University of Pennsylvania SP2|publisher=Petersons|access-date=May 16, 2020|archive-date=May 23, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200523105504/https://www.petersons.com/graduate-schools/university-of-pennsylvania-school-of-social-policy-and-practice-program-in-social-work-000_10013879.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/degree-programs/dual-degree-programs/overview/about-the-programs/|title=About the Programs {{!}} School of Social Policy & Practice|website=sp2.upenn.edu|access-date=June 30, 2016|archive-date=July 30, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160730133126/http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/degree-programs/dual-degree-programs/overview/about-the-programs/|url-status=dead}}</ref> Penn SP2's vision is: "The passionate pursuit of social innovation, impact and [[justice]]."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/about/index.html|title=About SP2|publisher=University of Pennsylvania School of Social Policy & Practice|access-date=May 16, 2020|archive-date=July 15, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140715142716/http://www.sp2.upenn.edu/about/index.html|url-status=dead}}</ref>
