Admission to Graduate Standing - Conditionally Classified
Students must meet the CSU requirements for admission to a master’s degree program. Please consult the Graduate Admissions section in this catalog for complete information. In addition, applicants must: (1) hold a bachelor’s degree with a major, or its equivalent, in American Studies or in an appropriate discipline of the humanities or social sciences; (2) have a grade-point average of at least 3.2 in upper-division major courses; and (3) submit two satisfactory letters of recommendation from instructors in upper-division major courses.
Students whose undergraduate program indicates certain limited subject, grade or breadth deficiencies may be considered for admission, at the discretion of the graduate adviser, with approval of the department’s graduate committee. In such cases, a student must make up deficiencies, in consultation with the graduate adviser, and must complete all required courses with at least a “B” (3.0) average before classified graduate standing may be considered.
