Higher Flyer

Begin taking Graduate level courses before completing your undergraduate degree! 

The following requirements apply:

  1. Only Stockton undergraduates who have successfully completed 96 semester hours of undergraduate credit by the time the graduate course begins will be eligible to enroll.
  2. Students must have earned at least a 3.2 overall G.P.A. A program may set a higher minimum G.P.A.
  3. Students may take up to 6 semester hours (typically two 3 credit courses) of 5000 level courses for credit.
  4. Students must have fulfilled appropriate prerequisites with a passing grade.
  5. Undergraduates will receive three (3) credits for each course successfully completed. Students should meet with their preceptor prior to starting this application to discuss how 3 credit courses will effect their over all credits needed toward undergraduate degree completion as well as which classess to take.
  6. As long as the undergraduate student is enrolled for 12-20 credits, then flat rate tuition will be applied plus an additional graduate course surcharge per the number of graduate credits being attempted.
  7. Graduate tuition and fees will be charged for these graduate-level classes if the student is not enrolled full-time(12-20 credits) because flat rate tuition does not apply to graduate courses.
  8. Approval for an undergraduate student to take a graduate course does not guarantee matriculation into a graduate degree program.
  9. Graduate courses taken as an undergraduate (with a grade of B or better) may be applied to a Stockton Master’s Degree Program at a later date.
  10. After submitting the application link below, your request will be reviewed by your Preceptor, the Graduate Course Instructor, and the School of General Studies & Graduate Education.

*Please note that the Higher Flyer program does not apply to all graduate programs.
