Transfer of Credit
From Program Bulletin

A maximum of six graduate credits earned with a grade of B or better may be transferred toward either the master's or PhD degree from institutions fully accredited for graduate study, provided:

  1. these credits have not been applied to any other degree or certificate;
  2. they are applicable to the study of information science or telecommunications;
  3. they are not older than the statute of limitations for the degree.

Only graduate courses will transfer in to the program. An undergraduate course will not transfer for graduate credit, even if it might count for graduate credit on the home campus.

Requests for advanced standing should be sent to the department chair, with all documentation that is available, including transcripts and course syllabi and/or course description.
