Communicate with the academic adviser in your major to verify first that it is advisable for you to take a graduate course. The adviser can also help you navigate this process.

- Last Name
- First Name
- Middle Initial

- Year (e.g., 2020)
- Term (e.g., Fall)
- Class Reference Number (this is usually in parentheses right after the section number)
- Course Prefix and Number (e.g. ENL5000)
- Section
- Hours (e.g., 3 )
- Credit will be counted as graduate and/or undergraduate credit
- Only students in an approved combined pathway program may select to have a graduate course count for both undergraduate and graduate credit.
- Total course load approved for this term
- Undergraduate students taking graduate courses are permitted a maximum enrollment of 15 hours.
- Email the completed form to the instructor of the graduate course you wish to take to request their approval.
- Once the instructor has approved the form, email the form to the department chair/designee offering the graduate course to request their approval.
- Email the completed form to as-advising@fsu.edu to request approval from your Academic Dean.
