Graduate Study Admission: Undergraduate Degree Requirement
FACULTY & STAFF INFORMATIONGraduate Study Admission: Undergraduate Degree Requirement
Date Implemented: September 01, 2003
Date Revised: February 24, 2009
In order to be admitted as a degree-seeking student to a graduate program a student must have been awarded a baccalaureate degree from an United States institution that is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission's regional accrediting organizations. Students with degrees from institutions outside the United States must comply with policies on international admissions.
In exceptional circumstances the Dean of the program may be petitioned for a waiver of this requirement. Copies of approved waivers are to be retained in the student’s permanent file, the Dean’s Office, and the Office of Academic Affairs.
Important Note: In the absence of a more strict policy at the school or college level the University Graduate Academic Policies apply. Should a graduate program not have a specific policy or should there be omissions or gaps in the policy for a specific graduate school program, the University Graduate Policy shall govern.
The Graduate Academic Policies are the responsibility of the office of Academic Affairs. For additions or revisions contact Dr. Angeline Barretta-Herman, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs.
