Waivers do not reduce the number of credits required to earn the degree. In our online programs, no more than three credits can be waived across the graduate certificate, advanced graduate certificate and degree.
This policy applies to courses that will be taken for fulfilling requirements to complete the graduate certificate, advanced graduate certificate and degree. This policy does not apply to foundations courses which have their own waiver policies.
