If a course is not one of the courses routinely accepted as listed in the approved list of frequently transferred courses, the advisor may either accept the course or request that the course be evaluated by the instructor for the parallel course offered by the CON. Pathophysiology should be evaluated by the current course instructor. Pharmacology should be evaluated by the current course instructor. If requested, the course instructor will review the material and send a recommendation to the advisor. The advisor will send a recommendation to the chair of the Professional Graduate Nursing Program Admission, Progression, Graduation & Scholarship Committee (PGNPAPGSC) with supporting documentation and a brief note on the comparability of the course work. If transfer is recommended, the PGNPAPGSC members will review and vote via consent agenda. Following PGNPAPGSC approval, a recommendation is submitted to the Associate Dean for Academic Programs for final approval.
