Pre-University Studies (PreUS) students have been conditionally admitted to MSU as part-time students due to not meeting the minimum admissions requirements. They may take a combination of courses through MSU and through the College of Technology in Bozeman (COT) during their first semester.  

PreUS students can be full time (up to 14 credits) in their first semester through a combination of Math, English, Effective Academic Practices, and/or First Year Seminar courses through the COT, along with one or two Core 2.0 or other courses through MSU.  After PreUS students attain a 2.0 GPA their first semester, they will transition to University Studies or an academic major for advising. Students who do not receive a 2.0 GPA their first semester will be suspended from MSU for one semester and may not take classes at MSU or the COT while on suspension.

COT courses are taught on the MSU campus.  Students register using the same online system and pay tuition for all courses through MSU.  All courses are listed on the MSU-Bozeman transcript.
