Unclassified Course Credit
A maximum of nine semester hours of course work taken while in an unclassified status may be used toward a graduate degree program (no more than one semester of full time enrollment). Unclassified status refers to a student who has at least a baccalaureate degree and has not been admitted into a graduate degree program or is not seeking admission into a graduate degree program.
The Graduate School may place holds on the registration of students that have taken the maximum hours and have not been admitted. Course registration will be suspended until an admission decision has been made. Thus, the student's application must be complete and the program faculty must recommend either a regular admission or must deny admission by the end of the first semester or the completion of nine semester hours.
