Undergraduate students who meet the eligibility requirements  (at least 90 credits earned with a 3.0 GPA) may register concurrently for up to 12 credits (4 courses) of the graduate courses in table below. These courses will serve as substitutes for the corresponding undergraduate course and count toward both the completion of a Bachelor’s and Master’s in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). Because a typical full-time graduate semester is 9 credits, this allows students to save more than a semester toward their Master’s degree. 

For BA TESOL students, some typical graduate course substitutions are listed below.  Please discuss options with your faculty advisor and the TESOL Graduate Program Director (Dr. Hanh Nguyen) to ensure proper course sequencing.
