Undergraduate - Adult and Online Campuses
Graduation requirements at the adult campuses are largely consistent with those at The College but are designed to accommodate a diversity of students and program options that include degree completion programs, “two plus two” programs in articulation with regionally accredited community colleges, as well as programs through which students pursue more than half of their academic coursework at Ottawa University.
Adult campus and online students must complete:
- A minimum of 30 semester credit hours in residence with Ottawa University, including required semester credits in the LAS sequence (LAS 20010 and LAS 20020 or LAS 30012 and LAS 45012), and at least 12 semester upper division credit hours in the major (does not include semester credit hours earned through credit by assessment).
- A minimum of 48 semester credit hours of upper-division coursework (300- and 400-level).
- A minimum of 28 semester credit hours in the major. Twelve semester credit hours must be upper division and taken in residence with Ottawa University. All grades for courses in the major must be at a “C” level or better. The university is responsible for the validity and relevance of the academic degrees it awards. Therefore, students returning after an absence of five years will be required to complete the requirements for their major under the current catalog year in which they return.
- A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or better.
- A minimum of 128 earned semester credit hours.
- A grade of “C” or better in all required LAS coursework.
