Degree Requirements
Graduate degrees and Professional Diplomas are conferred by the authority of the Kean University Board of Trustees. To qualify, a student must be fully matriculated in a graduate program of the University and have a minimum GPA of 3.0. Degree requirements must be completed within six years from the date of the first course applied towards the degree, which may also include six credits of approved graduate courses earned at another accredited institution, not credited toward another degree, with a grade of “B” or better. Successful completion of six credits taken as a non-matriculated student does not guarantee admission.
Graduate students are allowed to receive a maximum of two grades of “C.” Any additional grades of “C” must be repeated. Grades of “F,” “IN,” “AF,” and “NC” require repeating to meet college and/or course requirements.
