Admission to Graduate Studies

Admission to the graduate college of Northern Michigan University is open to bachelor degree graduates of regionally accredited four-year collegiate institutions in the United States, or graduates with equivalent degrees from institutions in other countries who have an overall grade point average of at least 3.00 on a scale of 4.00. Official transcripts of all collegiate course work must be submitted by the appropriate institutions to the Graduate Office. Individual departments may have requirements above the minimums.

Post-baccalaureate students enrolling in graduate courses but not pursuing a graduate degree or program may enroll as an unclassified student for up to 8 credits. Courses taken prior to formal application and admission to the College of Graduate Studies can only be used in a subsequent graduate degree or certification program with the approval of the advisor.

Election of Graduate Courses by Seniors

A senior within 12 credit hours of graduation with at least a 3.00 overall grade point average and a 3.0 GPA in the area of concentration may petition to enroll for a maximum of eight credit hours of graduate credit. These credits may be applied toward the undergraduate degree at the department’s discretion, or toward a master’s degree from Northern Michigan University, but not both. In general these credits will not be accepted in transfer by another institution.
