INTRODUCTION AND STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
This policy outlines university guidelines as they relate to an undergraduate second degree.
POLICY
At the February 6th Senate meeting the Academic Standards Committee of the University Senate (ASC) gave its recommendations for second degree policy due to the reduction of Minimum required graduation credits to 120 credits from 128 credits:
After reviewing the policies of the different colleges/universities, the committee found no consistent criteria in determining required number of credits for the second degree. Therefore, the committee recommends that for 野花社区, the Second Degree
Requirements be reduced, on a ratio basis approach (i.e. from 128:32=4; 120/4=30 for a 野花社区 first degree graduate and 128:36=3.56; 120/3.56=34 credit for a non-野花社区 graduate). See below:
