An applicant must meet the requirements for admission into the Graduate College. Please read directions carefully as the application fee is non-refundable.
The Graduate College allows Special Student acceptance only under restricted circumstances. Most individuals accepted need a specific course for professional advancement such as recertification. Acceptance as a Special Student is also considered for applicants in a formal post-baccalaureate training program. Applicants in a post-baccalaureate training program must have a completed baccalaureate degree with a GPA of at least 2.75. Other Special Student applicants must meet the regular requirements for admission to the Graduate College. Special Students are not eligible for probationary admission.
Enrollment must be approved by the course director(s), the director of the program responsible for the course(s), and the Graduate Dean. Special Student acceptance is not granted to students who wish to take courses to enhance an existing application to advanced degree programs. Enrollment is limited to 12 semester hours. Application and procedure to apply as a Special student is located on the Recruitment and Admissions website.
