Transfer Credit

There is no automatic transfer of credit from another university. The Director of Graduate Programs in the School of Business, the Dean of the School of Business, and the Graduate Advisory Committee must review and recommend approval of transfer of credit. To be eligible for transfer, the course (s) must be a part of the student's chosen program and must have been completed within the seven-year time limitation in which the master's degree is to be completed. To be eligible for transfer, a course grade of B or above is required. A maximum of six hours of graduate credit may be transferred from an accredited institution.

Acceptance of transfer credit toward core and concentration/ specialization area requirements is contingent upon its relevance and appropriateness to the degree being sought and is subject to approval by the Director of Graduate Programs in the School of Business, the Dean of the School of Business, and the Graduate Advisory Committee. Transfer hours will receive a grade of "P" and will therefore not be computed in the grade point average.

Courses credited toward a previous degree may not be credited toward the Master of Business Administration degree. Students enrolled in "for credit" special courses, college-sponsored seminars and institutes are expected to obtain grades of C or above. To apply these credits (maximum of 6 hours) toward a degree, the student must obtain approval from his/her academic advisor in advance of enrollment in the seminar or institute. Acceptance of credit toward a master's degree will be at the discretion of the Graduate Advisory Committee and subject to final approval by the Dean of the School of Business.
