Residency credits are credits earned in a UW-Green Bay course while enrolled as a UW-Green Bay graduate student.

• The minimum credit residency requirement for a graduate degree is 50% of required credits.
• One half of the program requirements for any graduate degree must be taken at the 700-level or higher.
• Graduate programs with additional accreditation standards may have more rigorous residency credit requirements. Please consult with the Program Chair.  
• Credits earned at the graduate level through the Credit for Prior Learning process (e.g., standardized examinations, challenge exams, portfolio development) may not be used to satisfy UW-Green Bay degree residency requirements.
