录取的学生
录取的学生 are those who have fully met the requirements for admission and have registered for courses in the quarter for which they were admitted. 本科, 学士学位阶段后的, and graduate definitions assume that students have been admitted to the University. 录取的学生 are classified at the beginning of each quarter according to the following designations:
本科生
- Freshman: 1–44 earned credits, including SPU credits and accepted transfer work.
- Sophomore: 45–89 earned credits, including SPU credits and accepted transfer work.
- Junior: 90–134 earned credit, including SPU credits and accepted transfer work.
- Senior: Minimum 135 earned credits, including SPU credits and accepted transfer work. (Senior status does not necessarily ensure graduation with the senior class of students.)
学士学位阶段后的学生
Students who have already received a baccalaureate degree and are seeking a second bachelor’s degree or initial teacher certification are considered 学士学位阶段后的 students. Admission to this classification is by application only.
研究生
研究生 are master’s or doctoral candidates. Admission to this classification is by application only. Seattle Pacific offers a variety of graduate and doctoral degrees.
Non-matriculated学生
Students not seeking a degree who are allowed to attend SPU without submitting the credentials required for admission with regular status are non-matriculated. The maximum credit load per quarter is 18 credits.
No more than 45 credits taken as a non-matriculated student may apply toward an undergraduate degree, and no more than 15 such credits may be applied to a 学士学位阶段后的 degree, nor can more than 9 such credits apply toward some graduate degrees. A later decision to work on a degree or certificate program will necessitate formal application and admission to the University as a matriculated student.
Non-matriculated学生 who are not native speakers of English must meet stated criteria or prove English proficiency 入学前.
