BRIDGE PROGRAMS

The Graduate Program

Like the Undergraduate Bridge Program, the Graduate Bridge Program is a special course for graduate students who have been admitted to Old Dominion University and have TOEFL scores between 500 and 550, (iBT 61-79). The curriculum for the semester-long Graduate Bridge (approximately 15 weeks) combines 7 hours per week of English instruction with one 3-hour credit course from the student's graduate program.

Admission to Full-Time Status
Graduate Bridge students will achieve full-time university status and be admitted to Old Dominion University when they successfully complete 2 semesters in the Graduate Bridge Program with a grade of B in their credit classes and a grade of B and 85% attendance in their English classes. Graduate Bridge students can also achieve full-time university status by receiving a TOEFL score of 550 (iBT 79-80).
