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 may also 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 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 must appear on the registration and record forms. 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.
