The program does have funding, but it is limited.
Current FSU Undergraduate Students
Students (who are eligible and meet minimum requirements) may take up to 12 credits of graduate level coursework, while still competing their undergraduate degree. You can use scholarship and bright futures to help pay for these 12 credits.
Criteria: 90 earned hours (30 hours earned at FSU), minimum 3.0 GPA, instructor permission

Student loans
Most students in this program finance their education through student loans.
State Employees
If you are a state employee, you can enroll up to 6 credits per term, using your state tuition waiver. (Contact your supervisor for more information).
