Exclude Courses from a Bachelor's Degree

Undergraduates may enroll for a maximum of nine credits of course work which may be applied toward a graduate degree at Colorado State provided that such course work is not used to meet bachelor’s degree requirements.

Undergraduate students who enroll in 500-level courses, which are not applied toward their bachelor’s degree, may request that an exclusion statement be placed on their academic records. This makes such courses potentially applicable to a Colorado State University graduate degree, although it doesn't guarantee acceptance of this credit toward a graduate program. No more than nine excluded semester hours may be credited toward a graduate degree at Colorado State University for 500-599 level courses. Students cannot exclude any courses below the 500-level under this policy. Courses at the 600-level are automatically excluded from use for an undergraduate degree. Excluded courses are computed in the undergraduate grade point average.

To exclude a course, students must fill out the Request to Exclude Courses from a Bachelor's Degree Form and submit it to the Registrar’s Office at registrarsoffice@colostate.edu, fax it to (970)491-2283 or bring it to Centennial Hall in person no later than the end of the term in which you take the excluded course.
