Post-Baccalaureate

An applicant who does not wish to pursue a graduate degree or graduate-level teacher certification program but who has earned a bachelor's degree from an accredited U.S. institution and who is in good standing at the last school attended may apply for admission as a post-baccalaureate student. These applications are received and processed in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
Post-baccalaureate students are subject to all requirements and regulations that apply to undergraduates. They must meet the academic progress standards applicable to undergraduates and are subject to the same probation/suspension policies.
An applicant who matriculates as a post-baccalaureate student has no assurance that work completed while in this classification will be applicable to graduate degree requirements, should he or she subsequently gain admission to a graduate degree program. Ordinarily, credits earned as a post-baccalaureate student will not be counted toward a graduate degree. The use of such credits requires the approval of the Dean of the College of Graduate Studies.
