Second Bachelor's Degree Admission Requirements
Graduates from regionally accredited four-year U.S. institutions may apply for admission for a second undergraduate degree. The first baccalaureate degree satisfies the general education and Gordon Rule requirements and provides exemption from the foreign language requirement for admission. Admission test scores are not required by the University, but may be required by a limited access program. Admission to a limited access program is not guaranteed. If the student’s grade point average is at least 2.0 on previous coursework and the applicant is in good standing at the last institution attended, the applicant is admissible to FGCU.
