Coursework taken as a non-degree student carries no degree credit. Up to 15 credits earned as an undergraduate non-degree student may be applied toward an undergraduate degree only with the approval of the appropriate dean at the time of reclassification. Up to 6 credits earned as a graduate non-degree student may be applied toward a graduate degree only with the approval of the appropriate school or academic dean at the time of reclassification provided that a grade of “B” (3.0) or better has been achieved.
