Graduate Study Opportunities for Undergraduate Students

Plymouth State University seniors with a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better may take up to six graduate credits with prior permission. Proper selection of the graduate courses may allow for double counting the graduate credits as undergraduate credits. The total (graduate and undergraduate) credits taken by a qualified senior in any one semester may not exceed 15 credits.
