I understand that if admitted to this program:

  • The 4-year guarantee for graduation will not be applicable to my enrollment.
  • I am working toward completion of both undergraduate and graduate programs simultaneously and that I must complete all the degree requirements to receive both degrees at the end of the program.
  • If I withdraw from the program and complete the requirements for the bachelor’s degree as described in the policies, I may receive a bachelor’s degree. If I then with to pursue a regular master’s degree or a doctoral degree after withdrawing from or completing this program, I must apply and be admitted to the Graduate School. All Graduate School minimum standards apply to eligibility for admission to the Graduate School. Department specific requirements may be waived by the department as approved in the department’s accelerated degree proposals. In the case of early withdrawal from the accelerated program, courses may not later count for two degrees.
  • Students continue to have undergraduate status until all requirements for the bachelor’s degree have been met or until 130 credit hours have been taken, after which students will be considered graduate students. Graduate status students are assessed graduate tuition rates and are no longer eligible for COF. In addition, graduate students receiving financial aid are considered “independent” and are no longer eligible for aid requiring undergraduate status.

I have read and understand the departmental policies and requirements for this program.
