Graduating with Honors
Residence
The College of Agricultural and Life Sciences requires completion of 60 semester hours or more of course work at the university for award of a baccalaureate degree. Some course work can be taken at other accredited four-year institutions with approval of the college.
The last 30 semester hours applied toward a degree must be completed in residence in the college. In special cases, the college can waive this requirement.
Students can complete six of the required 30 credits of residence work by correspondence, but each course must be approved in advance by the undergraduate coordinator for the major and the college. The college will not accept correspondence credit unless a student has a minimum upper-division GPA of 2.0 in all work attempted in residence.
