The maximum number of transfer credits toward a master's degree is 40 percent of the minimum requirement for the degree. No undergraduate credit may be transferred to meet the requirements of a Mason Gross School of the Arts graduate degree.
Students may apply for transfer of graduate credit from another accredited graduate institution after they have accumulated 12 credits in graduate courses in the M.F.A. or M.M. program at Mason Gross School of the Arts. No graduate credit is accepted, however, in transfer for courses in which the student received a grade below B. Any course for which a student requests transfer credit must be evaluated by the student's graduate program director and by the dean of Mason Gross School of the Arts. The responsibility for requesting transfer credit of graduate work lies with the student. A form for this purpose is available from the dean's office. The student should submit the completed form, together with an official transcript of the graduate work for which credit is requested, to his or her graduate program director.
