Academic Requirements

Students are responsible for understanding their academic requirements and for tracking their own progress toward completing those requirements.

Though academic requirements of the College may change while a student is enrolled, it is expected that each student will meet the requirements outlined in the Catalog that is in effect at the time of matriculation to Hillsdale College as a degree-seeking student. The “Catalog of Entry” is considered applicable for students who leave the College and whose interrupted course of study is not longer than five years.

Changes in the general requirements for the baccalaureate degrees will not be applied so as to necessitate that currently enrolled students, or those absent for no more than a year, take additional courses beyond the number required for the degree sought.
