How many hours can be transferred into the MA in Economics?
• Transfer credits are approved by the School of Graduate Studies or the Graduate Council only after the student has been admitted to candidacy for a degree. Petitions for transfer of graduate credit must be submitted to the School of Graduate Studies, and official transcripts recording the transfer courses must be sent directly from the registrar of that institution to the School of Graduate Studies. No course credit may be transferred unless the grade received was at least a B. If approved by the Department, a student may transfer a maximum of six semester hours of approved graduate credit from an accredited institution. Students may petition to the Graduate Council, with the approval of the adviser and the Departmental Graduate Committee, for additional hours to be accepted from other accredited institutions.
