Reservation of Work by Undergraduates for Graduate Credit

It is possible for undergraduate students to enroll in graduate courses in their last semester under the following conditions:

  • The undergraduate student must lack no more than 12 hours to complete all requirements for his or her first bachelor’s degree.
  • These 12 hours (or less) must be completed in the same semester, or in two consecutive summer sessions, in which the student is taking the graduate courses.
  • Total enrollment, including undergraduate and graduate courses, must not exceed 15 hours in a regular semester, or 12 hours in two consecutive summer sessions.
  • The student has a minimum Graduate Admission GPA Calculation of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) on all work completed to date. (For information on the Graduate Admission GPA Calculation, see Graduate Catalog.)
  • The application for such graduate work is submitted to the Graduate School. Undergraduates cannot count their work in graduate courses toward the bachelor’s degree. Such work will be reserved for credit toward a graduate degree.
