Correspondence Study
A maximum of six semester hours of credit may be allowed for correspondence study work taken in an
accredited institution. Both the adviser and the academic dean should be consulted before a student enrolls
for a correspondence course. (See also “Transfer credit.”)
Dean’s List
Any degree-seeking undergraduate student with at least 12 academic hours of grade-credit may be placed
on the dean’s list of their college of enrollment if they are in the top 20 percent as determined by the semester
grade point average of all eligible students in that college. Courses taken under the pass/fail option do not
count toward the 12.
Degree, application for
Application for degree must be filed in the registration and records office before the deadline announced
by that office—usually early in September for December graduation, early in January for May graduation
and the first week in June for graduation at the end of second-summer session.
