How do I fulfill UTKs 24 minimum course hour requirement (post-M.A.)?
You will need to take at least 8 three-hour courses at UTK, only one of which may be graded satisfactory/no credit (such as History 621). Thus you must have at least 21 hours of graded work. You may not count a course taken at another institution, or one that was taken to earn the M.A. degree. However, if you completed some courses during your M.A. work at UTK that you did not count toward your M.A. requirements, you may apply those to the 24 hours required for the Ph.D.
