Graduate Residency Requirements

1. For master’s students, at least 2/3 of the credits meeting program requirements must be taken from the University offering the degree.
2. Doctoral residency requirements are determined at the program level.

Note that these set the minimum number of credits that must be taken “in residence” and that universities can limit the number of hours that will be allowed to transfer into a graduate program.

Active-duty service members who are graduate students will be handled on a case by case basis.

Exceptions are to be approved by the Office of the Chancellor’s Division of Academic and Student Affairs.
