Course Substitution Policy
If waived, ISOM-801 needs to be substituted with an approved ISOM elective. To waive ISOM-801, a student must have successfully completed equivalent academic coursework at the undergraduate/graduate level in the seven (7) years prior to data analytics matriculation and earned a grade of "B" or better, and provide official transcripts (with English translations, if applicable). Students may also elect to take a proficiency exam, for a fee, to gain a waiver. Proficiency exams must be taken in the first semester and are administered on the Boston Campus.
To substitute an approved elective for another course, a student must have successfully completed equivalent academic coursework at the graduate level in the seven (7) years prior to data analytics matriculation, “B” or better, and provide official transcripts (with English translations, if applicable). A maximum of 3 credits of coursework can be substituted.
Degree Progression Policy
All graduate certificate students must complete a minimum of 9 credits in the Sawyer Business School.
Candidates who apply within one year of completing their graduate certificate will have applicable courses applied to a Sawyer Business School (SBS) graduate degree program in the same discipline as the certificate as long as a grade of "B" or better was earned in that course.
Candidates who apply beyond one year or from a certificate program outside their discipline, will have coursework evaluated on a case by case basis for relevancy, current degree requirements, and current Sawyer Business School waiver and transfer policies.
