Upper-level Rutgers undergraduate students may apply to the chairperson of the Department of Library and Information Science or the director of the master`s program in communication and information studies for permission to register for selected M.L.I.S. or M.C.I.S. courses. Permission is based on student`s academic record and professional and academic goals. Undergraduates may transfer credits for M.L.I.S. or M.C.I.S. courses toward the M.L.I.S. or M.C.I.S. degree if they are subsequently admitted to either program, provided such credits were not used for their undergraduate degree. Students wishing to make such transfers must register for E credit while in the undergraduate unit.
