Students who are able to demonstrate that they have kept abreast of current developments in their areas of study to the satisfaction of the qualifying examination committee, may be able to apply prior relevant graduate course work to the Educational Specialist program being proposed.

The total number of units of coursework taken as an undergraduate, in graduate non-degree status and transferred from other institutions can be no more than 12. Please refer to the form entitled 'Evaluation of Transfer Credit'. This form is due at the Graduate College before the end of the first year in residence.

General limits on the 12 units taken prior to acceptance into the program:

• Not more than 6 units of University of Arizona undergraduate coursework at the 400 level can be accepted into a master's program, only if they were not used toward the undergraduate degree.
• No more than 12 units of coursework taken in graduate non-degree seeking status may be used toward a master's degree.
• Transfer work may not exceed 20% of the required number of units for the master's degree being sought. (Example: For a degree that requires 60 units, no more than 12 units of transfer work may be used.)
