Policies

Grading Policies

The required 27 units of Math graduate courses numbered between 200 and 297 must be taken for a Letter grade.

GPA Requirements

A grade of B or better is required in courses that satisfy the 27 unit requirement.

External Credit Policies

Students who completed graduate coursework at another institution are strongly encouraged to transfer course units in winter quarter of their first year of doctoral study. The Director of Graduate Studies will evaluate the transfer of units on a course-by-course basis. Graduate work accepted for transfer of residency does not automatically exempt a student from having to complete a course requirement for the degree.
