Special Admissions Requirements for Graduate Certificate Applicants

Permission of the program dean if an applicant seeks entry into 5000-level classes as a senior or permission of the program dean for other students who have completed a bachelor's degree from an institutionally accredited college or university and who want to take a limited number of classes, normally not to exceed 9 hours.

Note: Students allowed to take classes under Special Admissions may not apply for a graduate assistantship. With permission of the program dean, any course(s) taken under Special Admissions and passed with at least a "B" may subsequently be applied for credit toward program requirements; in such cases the student must first be accepted into the program, and no more than five years shall have passed since the course(s) were taken.
