<p><strong>Schedule</strong></p>
<p>Check CSU’s website for term state and end dates; most online and on-campus courses in the Continuing Education for-credit programs match the term dates of the CSU campus. Each Continuing Education course will specify its delivery method: online, audio conference, video streaming, DVD and VCD, videotape, correspondence, CD-ROM, on-campus, or a combination.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Admission</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Undergraduate</em></strong>: Apply for admission to Undergraduate Degree Completion Programs at <a href="http://www.admission.colostate.edu/">www.admission.colostate.edu</a>. Applicants must have a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA; priority consideration is given to transfer applicants who have earned a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA in 24 or more college-level, academic semester credits. The number of credits that can be transferred differs by program; check with advisers for more information.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong><em>Graduate</em></strong>:  Apply for admission to Graduate Programs at <a href="http://graduateschool.colostate.edu/">http://graduateschool.colostate.edu/</a> . Applicants must have a minimum undergraduate 3.0 cumulative GPA in order to be considered for admission. Track II admission, which does not require the GRE, is available for some programs for individuals who have at least five years of appropriate professional experience and a baccalaureate degree. Specific requirements – including undergraduate GPA, specific GRE minimum scores, and GRE advances tests – vary by degree, so be sure to check with the adviser in the specific department well in advance of the application deadline for more information.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Students can take courses before being officially admitted to a degree program (check with an adviser to see how many credits can be taken before admission and still be applied to the degree completion requirements). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Continuing Education uses RamCT as its online learning platform to conduct all online credit courses. It provides user-friendly access to course materials, discussion groups, assignments, exams, chat, and other learner services.</p>
