4+ 1 | Double Counting Policy
Undergraduate students who have accumulated a minimum of 75 credits with a 3.0 GPA are eligible to apply for early admission to the Master's of Environmental Science program.  If accepted, students will be eligible to enroll in graduate courses that will count toward both their undergraduate and graduate degrees. Students will receive an admissions decision before selecting the last 30 credits toward their undergraduate degree program.

Once admitted to the master’s program, the student will register for the advised combination of graduate and undergraduate courses to complete the requisite number of credits to complete the undergraduate degree. If graduate courses substitute for specific undergraduate degree requirements, this should be noted. If graduate courses do not substitute for specific undergraduate degree requirements, students must complete their undergraduate degree requirements using the appropriate graduate and undergraduate courses. Once undergraduate requirements are completed, the undergraduate degree will be conferred. Up to 12 credits of approved graduate courses taken as an undergraduate will count toward the graduate degree. Graduate courses taken will appear simultaneously on both the undergraduate record and the graduate record as original coursework with grades calculated into the GPA. Double counting of 12 credits is accepted.
