Transfer of Credit
Previously completed graduate courses may be transferred to the University
to meet existing course work requirements. Transfer Credit is limited
to 6 semester units of credit. During the admissions process, all professional
experience is reviewed to determine if an applicant has sufficient occupational
experience to warrant taking a Challenge Examination, in lieu of completing
the Study Guide for a particular course.
An applicant may be offered an opportunity to complete a Challenge Examination
if the candidate's profesional expertise appears to be comparable to
the objectives identified for a particular course. Successfully passing
a Challenge Examination will demonstrate an acceptable level of competence
for that course. If a student does not pass a Challenge Examination,
they are assigned a Study Guide for completion.
Study Guides
California Coast University has developed comprehensive Study Guides
for each course that are designed to coordinate and sequence the learning
materials for the student. Study Guides are based on specific college
level textbooks, which may be obtained from local bookstores, the publisher,
or the University's lending library which is available by telephone,
e-mail or online via Coast Connection.
Study Guides are organized in such a way that students receive a complete
syllabus for each course along with instructional materials, which guide
students chapter by chapter through the corresponding textbook.
Each Study Guide contains an overview and summary of each textbook chapter,
along with a listing of important keywords (with definitions) and self-tests
(with answers) on key points. Each of those items is referenced back
to the specific learning objectives for the chapter, which allow the
student to easily understand concepts or theories presented in that
particular chapter.
Study Guides contain 4 "Unit Test" equally spaced throughout
the instructional materials, a brief writing assignment and the Final
Examination. Examinations are designed to test the student on the preceding
chapters. All tests are un-timed and may be completed as open book tests.
Proctored Final Examinations
The Master of Business Administration in Human Resources Management
Degree program requires that a Proctor administer the final examinations.
All tests are un-timed and may be completed as open book tests.
The purpose of the proctored examination is to verify that you are,
in fact, the person who enrolled in the course of study. During proctored
examinations, you may use your course textbook, and any notes that you
have taken during the completion of your Study Guide.
The student selects the Proctor. A proctor can be any responsible person
who is not a family member. (Such as your Minister, Rabbi, a co-worker,
librarian, etc)
