Admission and Application

This degree completion program is designed for you if you have completed at least 60 semester hours of transferable college credit with a GPA of 2.0 or better. Although this program works particularly well for students who have completed an associate degree with an emphasis in agriculture, an associate’s degree is not required for admittance into this program. Opportunities also exist for those with less background in this field.

Transcript Evaluation

Prior transcripts are evaluated to determine academic status in relation to satisfying degree program requirements, including both general education courses equivalent to Colorado State core curriculum and all prerequisites for upper-division, junior- and senior-level work. Students are encouraged to complete any outstanding general education courses and lower-division prerequisites as they pursue formal admission to Colorado State University. You are allowed to repeat courses if necessary.
