Can I take courses outside of my graduate program?
Most of the time, students take classes that are part of their degree program. However, in some cases, you may be allowed to take a class from another program, like an undergraduate course while you're in a graduate program, if there's a special agreement between the programs.
If you're approved to take one of these courses:
- It may count toward both degrees, depending on the agreement
- You'll pay the undergraduate rate for undergrad courses and the graduate rate for grad courses
These situations are rare, so it's important to check the UMGC Catalog or visit Admissions for Special Circumstances for the most up-to-date details.
