Conditional admission may be granted to applicants whose baccalaureate degree or master’s degree has not yet been conferred, or if grades for the current term have not yet closed at the time of application. Applicants must have a final official transcript showing the awarding of the degree sent to the Graduate Studies Office as soon as the degree is conferred but no later than 30 days after the beginning of the semester for which applicant was accepted. (The Graduate Studies Office will obtain final transcripts for Buffalo State graduates.) Failure to meet this requirement will result in prior acceptance to the university being rescinded. A "hold" will also be placed on the student's record resulting in ineligibility for future enrollment. This may impact Financial Aid eligibility.
