5xxx Requirements

5xxx-Level Course Requirements

Advanced undergraduates can take 5xxx-level courses offered in our graduate program. These classes count towards your undergraduate degree and are charged an undergraduate tuition rate.

Requirements

  • Have at least a 3.0 GPA
  • Statistics and research background
  • Instructor consent

Note: Some courses have only one version of the course that counts towards your undergraduate degree. These are marked with an "OR." For those classes you can take either the undergraduate version or the graduate version but NOT BOTH. Some courses have two versions of the course that can both count towards your undergraduate degree.  These are marked with AND/OR because you can take just one or both versions of the class. Please note that in these cases, the %xxx-level version does involve additional, unique advanced content not found in the 3xxxx-level version.

* In order for a graduate class to replace an undergraduate class you need to fill out an exception to the APAS form *
