Online Degree Completion Program

Gallaudet University's Online Degree Completion Programs (ODCP) are degree completion programs open to eligible transfer or returning students. Applicants should have accumulated at least 45 hours of college credit toward a bachelor's degree, either at Gallaudet or at other institutions, and who wish to complete that degree at Gallaudet. Exceptions may be made based on the review of representatives from designated major programs. Once admitted, students will work with an academic advisor for the first six weeks and then be transferred to a faculty advisor. A degree earned through the ODCP will be indicated as such on the student's transcript.

Applicants should follow the standard application procedures for undergraduate freshmen and transfer students, using the Online Degree Completion Program application. Applicants should also demonstrate satisfactory levels of English proficiency by passing the college English core courses with a C- or higher before enrollment into the ODCP.

Admitted students will be required to pay the $150 enrollment fee.

Hearing applicants may apply.

There are no residency requirements for Online Degree Completion Program students. At least fifty percent of the major courses must be from Gallaudet's degree programs.
