2nd Baccalaureate Candidates

Students who have already received a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution and are interested in pursuing a second bachelor’s degree may be considered for admission as 2nd Baccalaureate candidates.  It is expected that applicants are prepared to enter courses at the junior level.

2nd B.A. students are subject to the following regulations in Humanities:

  • Degree requirements must be completed in six quarters of attendance, excluding summers.
  • You may only enroll in courses that apply toward your degree.

Applicants must meet required prerequisites in order to apply for a second B.A. in that field.  Note that completion of the minimum required prerequisites does NOT guarantee admission.  Lower-division major courses may be completed at the community college prior to enrolling at UCI.

Information about eligibility criteria and (re)admission procedures for second B.A. students varies depending on your status:
