category makes an average of 3.0 in his first six to nine semester hours of

Category III comprises individuals other than those in Category II who

This category comprises graduate students who have been cleared of
undergraduate deficiencies for the master's degree program for which they

approved colleges may be credited toward a master's degree. The transferred courses must have been taken in residence; they must cover content
which is required in the student's program or recommended by the adviser
for elective credit; they must have grades of B or higher. In case a course

Students in Category I may apply for transfer to Category III or Category TV. A cumulative average of 3.0 is prerequisite to transfer. Not more
than twelve semester hours taken while in Category I may be applied to a
master's degree unless a special dispensation

record showed a quality point average lower than 2.25. If a student in this
category makes an average of 3.0 in his first six to nine semester hours of
graduate study at Bloomsburg, he is eligible for transfer to Categories III
or IV; otherwise, he is automatically transferred to Category I after nine
semester hours have been completed.
CATEGORY
III
Category III comprises individuals other than those in Category II who
have applied for admission to existing master's degree programs. Transfer
to Category IV is automatic when the adviser certifies to the Graduate
Dean that there are no undergraduate deficiencies to be made up or when
previously identified deficiencies have been successfully made up.
CATEGORY
IV
This category comprises graduate students who have been cleared of
undergraduate deficiencies for the master's degree program for which they
have applied. A student must be in Category IV to be eligible to apply for
admission to candidacy for a master's degree program. A student in Category IV is transferred automatically to Category I if he has not attained

NUMBERING OF COURSES
Courses numbered 500 or higher are open only to graduate students.
Courses numbered below 500 and listed in this bulletin are open also to
advanced undergraduates. The number of credits in such courses which
may be applied to a degree is limited to six semester hours.

TRANSFER OF CREDIT
2.11
A maximum of six semester hours in graduate courses taken in other
approved colleges may be credited toward a master's degree. The transferred courses must have been taken in residence; they must cover content
which is required in the student's program or recommended by the adviser
for elective credit; they must have grades of B or higher. In case a course
has been taken on a branch campus of a university, it will be construed as a
residence course if full-time graduate students are accommodated to take a
degree program on that campus.
