What is the Residency Requirement appearing on my audit?
Residence — a requirement for a degree which specifies the minimum period during which a student must be registered on the main campus — is intended to provide an adequate contact with the University and its faculty for each student who is awarded a degree. For an undergraduate degree, regardless of the length of time the student has attended the University, a minimum of 30 of the last 36 credits presented for the degree must be taken from the University, but not necessarily on the main campus. Requests for waiver of this requirement for veterans or other students must be approved by the dean of the student’s college. (See Academic Requirements section of the UK Bulletin.
