Students in Individual Studies select courses based on their individual goals. Advisers assist students with course selection and the sequencing of courses that fit the students' goals and that provide students with the skills and knowledge related to their specified area of concentration.
Courses that students have successfully completed while enrolled in another program will automatically transfer if they satisfy designated requirements for the Foundations, Perspectives, and other electives. All other courses will be evaluated to determine their fit with the student's goals.
