Please see appropriate and additional admissions requirements for each graduate program. The official copies of all undergraduate and graduate transcripts may be used for individual program admissions if required. Please note appropriate graduate program deadline dates for admission. These dates vary with each program.
Graduate Council
The Graduate Council is responsible for admission to graduate programs, general policy setting and ascertaining the institutional effectiveness of the graduate programs. The Council may serve as a review board in student academic affairs. The Graduate Council is composed of the Vice President for Academic Affairs, the Director of Admissions, the Directors of each graduate program, one appointed faculty member with graduate status and an appointed student representative. The Council membership may be altered as new graduate programs are added to ensure equality of representation.
Visiting Student
For admission as a Visiting Student, please submit:
An applicant who is enrolled in a graduate program at another institution may enroll for courses as a Visiting Student. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure the transferability of the course to the home institution.
Graduate Student Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the Graduate Student to become familiar with the general regulations for the graduate study and his or her appropriate program of study requirements as stated in the bulletin. The Graduate Student is also responsible for completing all program requirements within the permitted time limit for each graduate program.
Admission to graduate programs does not imply admission to candidacy for a degree. When nine hours have been completed, the student must apply for degree candidacy. Requirements for degree candidacy are nine hours of classes competed at Campbellsville University, no incomplete grades and a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Degree candidacy is an opportunity to permit the graduate faculty of a graduate program to review the work of the applicant and determine the capability of the student to complete the program. If the conditions are not met, degree candidacy will be delayed until 15 hours are completed. The student will not be permitted to enroll in classes after 15 hours have been earned if degree candidacy has not been obtained.
Graduate study is usually more research oriented, more specialized and more rigorous than undergraduate work. Therefore, Graduate Students are expected to show independence and a seeking of knowledge, reflecting a more mature attitude toward scholarly endeavor. Due to the demands of graduate work, students are anticipated as having time management skills and organizational skills that will enable them to maintain successful levels of work.
