Instructions on how an applicant to the Multiple Subject or Single Subject Credential program may make a course substitution request.
Multiple Subject or Single Subject Credential program applicants may request that an equivalent course from another institution be considered in place of one of the CSUB Credential Program courses by submitting a course substitution form, unofficial transcripts, and a catalog description. A course syllabus may be submitted in addition to the catalog description. The catalog description and/or syllabus must be from the year the course was taken.
Without a course substitution request, no previous coursework will be considered for substitution. Previous coursework that is being submitted for substitution should be less than 5 years old and no course may be older than 7 years at time of preliminary credential application per CTC guidelines. The applicant may submit a course substitution request prior to applying to a credential program.
Please be advised that graduate programs are under no obligation to accept or approve course substitutions including any transfer credit that a candidate may have received as an undergraduate or in another graduate/credential program.
