A University category of admission is that of a Post-Baccalaureate Unclassified (PBU) student, for students not admitted to any advanced degree program. Unclassified students sometimes enroll in SLS graduate courses (if there is space), and sometimes they later apply to the MA program. PBU students applying to the MA in SLS degree program are subject to the same application process and requirements as all applicants. The Credit Acceptance Policy for credits earned as a PBU student can be found here: https:\/\/manoa.hawaii.edu\/graduate\/transfer-pbu-credits\/<\/a>.<\/p>\nInformation on how to apply as a PBU student can be found at the following links (information also copied below):
