Part-time Degree Programs The College of Arts and Sciences and the Schools of Architecture (only programs in architectural history and planning), Engineering and Applied Science, and Nursing offer part-time degree programs. Prospective students follow the same application procedures required for the full-time program. Applicants to both the School of Architecture and the School of Engineering and Applied Science are required to have completed two years of college work and must be eligible to enter in the third-year class. The School of Nursing restricts their part-time program to Registered Nurses only. The College of Arts and Sciences normally requires applicants to have completed two years of college work, but will also consider applications from first- and second-year students whose personal
circumstances warrant it. Part-time students admitted to the College are not eligible for intermediate honors or the dean's list. If a student's current grade point average falls below 1.8, or the student earns a grade below C- in a given semester, he or she receives an academic warning. The student may be subject to the College's standard rules regarding academic suspension. After earning 54 hours, good standing within the major is expected for continuation as a part-time degree student in Arts and Sciences.
