Second Bachelor’s Degree

Students seeking a second bachelor’s degree must complete all courses required for each major (Area II: Major Component and Major Concentration) and must complete a minimum of 234.0 credit hours (52-courses). Note that this is a minimum of 54.0 credit hours (12 courses) more than is required to complete the first bachelor’s degree. If a course is listed as a requirement in the student’s major area (Area II: Major Component and Concentration Component) in both programs an equivalent course must be substituted and taken in its place for the second degree. No more than 9.0 credit hours (2-courses) may be substituted in the second major.  Students must complete a second capstone for the second degree program. Students are not eligible to earn a second bachelor's degree within the same discipline. If the second program requires the same capstone course as the first, this program may not be combined with the first to complete a second bachelor's degree.
