Financial Aid
A student who is admitted as a grad-
uate student can only receive financial
aid for graduate courses. Undergraduate
courses cannot be included when deter-
mining a graduate student’s enrollment
status (full-time, half-time, etc.) for
purposes of financial aid eligibility.
Important Note for Graduate Students
If the student has received a bachelor’s
degree from an accredited institution
and wishes to enroll in more than eight
(8) credit hours of undergraduate or
graduate courses oered by the Univer-
sity, the student must file an Application
for Admission. The student must request
that an ocial transcript be sent to the
Oce of Graduate Admissions from the
college granting the bachelor’s degree,
as well as ocial transcripts show-
ing any post-baccalaureate work. The
student must list all colleges attend-
ed on the application. Admission as a
post-baccalaureate student, however,
does not constitute acceptance as a
candidate for a master’s degree. A
separate application for admission to
candidacy for the master’s degree must
be requested from the Graduate Oce.
