My senior year, I took several 600 level courses that were offered to both undergrad students and grad students (Master's students, my school didn't offer PhD's). These 600 level courses made up a decent chunk of my senior year. They are listed normally in my undergrad transcript, except they say 600 instead of 400 or 300 etc. Will DO schools/ AACOMAS just calculate these as normal undergrad courses, or as graduate courses? The AACOMAS application manual seems to imply that graduate courses are those that were "taken while enrolled in a graduate degree program", on page 17. So, I'm assuming my courses would be incorporated into my undergrad GPA?
Also, I have not taken a single course that has an English or Composition prefix, and I know most schools require 6 credits. I have taken 9 credits of humanities, that were writing intensive, 6 credits of philosophy courses that were writing intensive, and a course titled Principles of Communication which had a communication prefix and a course titled Scientific Communication (both also quite writing intensive). Will I still need to take the 6 credits with an English prefix, or should these courses count (I'm thinking particularly the humanities courses would hopefully count). Also, to verify if they will "count", do I just have to verify with AACOMAS, or do I have to verify with each individual school?
