Also, please describe or provide a link to program admissions policies that allow students to enter with credit for prior graduate work, and the expected implications for time to completion. Please indicate NA if not applicable:
Students may transfer six hours (eight hours if a University of Kansas undergraduate) of graduate credit to count towards a School Psychology graduate degree. In addition, students may request a waiver from a required course based on a previously completed graduate course that is evaluated to be equivalent to the course required at the University of Kansas. The course transfers and waivers may reduce the amount of time needed to complete the program by one or two semesters.
