Fast-Track Program
Reservation for 成人头条 Credit
Why Fast Track?
The Fast-Track Program enables outstanding undergraduate 成人头条 students to receive dual undergraduate and graduate credit for up to 15 hours of 成人头条 course work as determined by participating Master's and Doctoral programs. Not all undergraduate programs have elected to participate in the Fast Track option, so students should see their departmental graduate advisor for information about requirements and guidelines.
成人头条 seniors with 90 hours of undergraduate coursework toward their major with a minimum of 24 of those hours at 成人头条 and have a 3.30 GPA may apply. A student who has previously earned a Bachelor's degree may not apply to this program.
To be considered for the Fast Track Program, students need to complete a 成人头条 School application. Once the 成人头条 School clears the application based on the recommendations of the intended graduate program, students will be assigned a fast track code until the Bachelor's degree is conferred. The student will be subsequently admitted as a new student in the graduate program.
Participating graduate programs may have additional requirements including specific GRE scores and undergraduate coursework preparation.
Students must be advised each semester by both the undergraduate and graduate advisors and cleared for registration in graduate courses by the 成人头条 School.
A grade of B or better in the graduate course is required for it to count as graduate credit. A grade of C will not count toward the graduate degree but the credit hours will still count toward the undergraduate degree. 成人头条 courses will show on the undergraduate transcript as a transfer and are not calculated in the undergraduate GPA. 成人头条 courses should not be used for determination of undergraduate honors or other academic awards at the Bachelor's level.
Exceptions to these guidelines will be handled through an appeal process established by the participating graduate program.
Tuition will be based on the level of the course, not on the level of the student. Financial aid may be available if enrollment in graduate courses are less than half of your total credit hours for the semester.

Why Reserve for 成人头条 Credit?
Ordinarily, undergraduates are not eligible to take graduate courses, but it is possible for seniors to register in graduate courses in their last semester under the following conditions:
成人头条 Seniors must need 12 or fewer hours (or six hours in summer) of work to complete all requirements for their first baccalaureate degree and must have a upper division GPA of at least 3.0.
With the exception of students enrolled in institutionally approved curricular programs that explicitly involve the joint granting of baccalaureate degrees and graduate degrees and fast-track programs, an undergraduate cannot count credit for graduate courses toward the baccalaureate degree. It will be reserved for credit toward a graduate degree. A form for reserving courses is available in the 成人头条 School. This program is not eligible for financial aid.
Approval to reserve work for graduate credit neither constitutes nor implies admission to any graduate program.
