You must submit a 4+1 Declaration Form in order to receive the 4+1 benefits. Students who do not submit a 4+1 Declaration Form before beginning their final undergraduate semester will not be considered for the 4+1.
You may defer your admission to the graduate portion of your 4+1 program for up to one year after completing your undergraduate studies.
While there is no minimum GPA requirement to apply to one of the 4+1 programs, students with at least a 3.66 GPA in undergraduate courses after completing 90 undergraduate credits may additionally count 6 hours of the graduate coursework towards their undergraduate degree; this 6 hours will “double count” for both the undergraduate and graduate degrees.
You may transfer up to 12 graduate credit hours taken during your undergraduate studies into your graduate program. You must have received a “B” or better in each graduate level course in order for the classes to be considered transferable.
