Courses are 3 credit hours each, unless stated otherwise. The University reserves the right to change or cancel courses as needed.

Teaching dual credit courses

Students interested in earning English graduate credits toward the requirement for teaching dual-enrollment high school/college English courses have the option of taking electives that count toward those credits.

Nondegree-seeking enrollment

Prior to acceptance into the program, you may enroll in up to 9 credit hours as a nondegree-seeking (in some cases, post-baccalaureate) student. Enrollment does not guarantee acceptance. Learn more about nondegree-seeking university student admissions.
