The following regulations govern Texas State extension studies:

         State students may take extension courses.
  2. Students on active suspension from any university are ineligible for extension credit.
  3. Full-time students at Texas State who will have a course overload if they take extension courses must seek
         approval of their school dean and chair..
  4. Students from other institutions who wish to transfer extension credit should obtain prior approval of their
         home institution prior to enrolling.
  5. Those not admitted to Texas State may take extension courses.
  6. Transcript records are maintained for all credit earned by extension.
  7. Those employed as teachers may present for credit toward a certificate or degree not more than six hours
          during one public school year.
  8. Extension coursework completed through Texas State counts toward a student's GPA and may be applied
         toward residency requirements for graduation with a bachelor's degree. Hours and grades earned through 
         Texas State extension courses are counted in the hours required to be elibible for Dean's List and in the
         GPA calculation for Dean's List. Also, hours earned through Texas State extension courses are counted in
