Any course numbered 500 or above is designed for graduate students
and normally carries credit toward one of the advanced degrees. Certain
advanced undergraduate courses numbered in the 300s and 400s also may
be approved for a given graduate student, either as a regular part of
his or her graduate program or as a means of remedying a deficiency in
preparation. When a matriculated graduate student is permitted or
requested to enroll in a course numbered below 500, explicit approval
by the student's adviser is required and the credit prefix G, N, or
E appears on the transcript. See Grades and Records later in this
chapter for rules related to credit prefixes. Students registering in
undergraduate courses are subject to the policies of the undergraduate
division offering the course.
