Conditional Admission Requirements

Early Acceptance into a Combined Accelerated Bachelor’s/Master’s program is considered ‘conditional’ during the first 2 to 3 years of study (timing varies by program). The conditional status may continue until the point of department review and decision regarding continuation in the program. General conditions for continuance in a Combined Accelerated Bachelor’s/Master’s Degree Program are as follows:

  • Successfully complete at least two years of undergraduate study (timing of department review varies by program) 
  • Attain a minimum GPA as specified by the degree program at the point of department review 
  • Make adequate progress toward graduation, as evidenced by successfully completing all coursework and cooperative education scheduled to have been finished by the time of department review 

 Other factors that may impact student eligibility for continuance include incidents of academic misconduct or excessive course withdrawals. Programs may also consider performance in key courses necessary for success in graduate coursework.
