Second Bachelor’s Degree

Students who have completed a bachelor’s degree and wish to obtain a second bachelor’s degree are required to apply for admission. For those students seeking a second bachelor's degree in business, the McCoy College requires the overall cumulative GPA from your first degree be a 2.5 or higher. Second-bachelor's degree seekers cannot pursue a General Studies major. Students who hold a bachelor’s degree and wish to pursue additional course work but not a second bachelor’s degree should apply through The Graduate College. 

To apply, students must complete and submit the Transfer Student Application through ApplyTexas, $75 application fee, and submit an official transcript from the institution where the highest degree was obtained. Transcripts for any course work completed after the degree was earned must also be submitted. Applicants must meet all appropriate priority dates and deadlines. For more information on how to apply for a second bachelor’s degree, visit the Office of Undergraduate Admissions webpage.

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions does not post transfer credit for students who have been awarded a bachelor's degree. Course work taken after degree completion will be posted to the student's Texas State transcript. Students should work directly with their major department, school, or program to determine how course work from the first degree applies to their second degree.
