When you enter the program you can bring up to 30 hours of previous graduate credit into the program. The grades of these transferred courses do not affect your doctoral grade point average. The courses are normally brought into the minor program area termed “allied” or “research” categories since the Literacy category will centrally require taking the core program courses (see Advanced Standing Form). There is no statute of limitations for these courses; however, the Department reserves the right to deny applying courses taken over ten years prior to admission into the advanced program, as well as courses deemed inappropriate for transfer. Courses taken at SUNYA that are applicable to the student's advanced program should be included in the Memorandum of Advanced Standing.
