Transfer of Credit

Transfer credit for 12 semester hours of post-master’s coursework from NLU or other institutions offering graduate degrees is approved on a case-by-case basis by the chairs of the doctoral programs. Approval for transfer credit beyond 12 semester hours may be obtained through petition to the Academic Policies Committee. Credit for courses taken more than six years prior to the time the student was admitted to the doctoral program must also be approved through petition to the Academic Policies Committee.
