Admission Status
An applicant may be admitted to graduate work without regard to residence or citizenship under one of two categories:
- Fully matriculated: those students who have fulfilled all general and special admissions requirements.
- Matriculated with conditions: students whose undergraduate training is deficient, but who have otherwise qualified for admission
Full-Time/Part-Time Status
In order to be considered a full-time graduate student, students must register for a minimum of 9 credits per semester. However, a minimum of 12 credits per semester is still required for in-state students to receive flat rate tuition. Please see the 'Tuition and Fees' section of this bulletin for more information.
A part-time student registers for fewer than 9 credits per semester.
