446 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [March 14 a particular degree will be determined by the University College and Department concerned. B. The present regulation concerning acceptance of credit earned at provisionally accredited institutions is as follows : Provisionally Accredited Institutions Credits from schools with provisional accreditation are accepted on the basis of validation by satisfactory completion of additional work in residence. Validation through satisfactory work in residence may be accomplished by earning in the University of Illinois or other fully accredited collegiate institution at least a 3.0 ("C") average, or higher if prescribed by the curriculum he wishes to enter, in the first fifteen to thirty semester hours completed thereafter. Any semester in which the student first completes fifteen semester hours, or any number of semester hours between fifteen and thirty inclusive, with the required average is accepted as validating the transferred credit. In all cases, the grades for all work attempted in the validating period are counted in computing the average. Such credits not validated within the first thirty semester hours can then be validated only by proficiency examinations. The Committee recommends the following addition to the present regulation to become effective in June, 1967. A student may submit a petition to the dean of his college and the Director of Admissions and Records to have credits earned in any subject area accepted after the successful completion (with grades of " C " or better) of six semester hours or nine quarter hours of higher level courses in the same subject matter field at the University, even though a 3.0 ("C") or higher average was not achieved in the first fifteen or thirty semester hours, or their equivalent, in residence. The Executive Vice-President and Provost has approved these recommendations. I concur. On motion of Mr. Page, these recommendations were approved.
