Residency Requirements

The Council continued its discussion of whether to allow non-matriculated students to count credits toward meeting graduation residency requirements. Herb Chereck distributed information sheets on the enrollment patterns on non-matriculated students in three terms, Fall 1995, Fall 1996, and Fall 1997. He also submitted statistics on the tuition differential between non-matriculated and matriculated students, and Fall 1998 enrollment statistics. Chereck concluded that the change would have little financial impact. After more discussion, the Council approved a resolution, as follows:
 
"Credits earned at the University of Oregon by a non-matriculated student count toward the residency requirements for a baccalaureate degree."
