An individual who has received a baccalaureate degree but who does not wish
to apply for admission into a graduate degree program may apply for
admission as a post-baccalaureate student. This type of admission is
available to individuals who:
Interested individuals must complete the Application for Post-Baccalaureate
Admission and must submit to the Graduate Student Services Office an
official transcript with the baccalaureate degree posted. If several
institutions were attended, an official transcript is required from each
institution from which junior/senior, and any graduate level credit was
earned. UTEP transcripts are not required of students who received their
baccalaureate degree from UTEP.
Post-baccalaureate admission is not available to international students who
need a student visa (I-20) to attend school in the United States unless
approved by the International Programs Office.
Admission as a post-baccalaureate student does not constitute admission
into a graduate degree program of the Graduate School. An individual who
wishes to apply for admission into a graduate degree program must complete
the pplication for Admission into a Graduate Program and provide the
documents described under "Admission into a Graduate Program."
Initial teacher certification and professional certification for classroom
teachers can also be earned. Eligibility for these programs includes a
minimum 2.5 cumulative grade point average from an accredited college or
university, successful completion of the TASP (Texas Academic Skills
program), and development of an approved plan of study.
Eligible applicants for certification and endorsement programs will be
notified that they may enroll as non-degree students but will need to
contact the Certification Office in the College of Education immediately
for eligibility into one of several certification or endorsement programs.
The Certification Office and the College of Education are responsible for
course scheduling and may require a minimum enrollment per term for
admitted students. This Office additionally will develop a plan of study
for each student in keeping with the requirements set forth by the Texas
Education Agency (TEA). The certification or endorsement will be earned
upon successful completion of all requirements.
Graduate-level course work completed during the certification or
endorsement program that has not been used to meet other degree
requirements may be recommended by the departmental Graduate Advisor to the
Graduate school to count towards an advanced degree under certain
circumstances. These courses are limited to a maximum of nine (9) semester
hours in which the grade of B or higher has been earned within the time
limits and other restrictions detailed in this Graduate Studies catalog.
Additional information on certification and endorsement programs is
available from the Certification Office within the College of Education and
the Graduate School.
