Independent Study

Rockford University faculty members support independent study to encourage qualified students to pursue learning actively throughout life. The format of independent study, outlined in a written application developed with the supervising instructor, may vary from student to student.

To be eligible, students must have finished a full semester (or its equivalent) of study at Rockford University, one third of the hours toward general education requirements, and have an overall GPA of 2.5, with 3.0 in the field of study. An additional fee is charged for independent study.
