Students who have completed residence coursework in graduate standing at other accredited colleges or universities may be eligible to apply credit toward master's degree program requirements at SJSU. Note that credits earned through extension divisions in other institutions may not be used toward master's degree programs.
Not less than 80% of coursework required for the master's degree must be completed in residence. For example, a maximum of six units can be transferred and applied to a 30-unit program. Exceptions are granted in advance by petition to the Associate Vice President for Graduate Studies and Research. Graduate transfer work may be applied toward a master's degree program, provided such work is approved by the advisor, included in the program and validated as graduate residence credit by Graduate Studies and Research prior to advancement to candidacy. Transfer course-work must have been completed within seven years of the date of the award of degree from SJSU. Forms to request approval of transfer units may be obtained at Graduate Studies and Research, Student Services Center.
