Units Above Bachelors Degree Sample Clauses

Units Above Bachelors Degree. Only college units taken from an accredited college or university after the requirement for the Bachelors Degree has been officially fulfilled can be counted toward changing of salary classification (whether the actual graduation ceremony is at that time or the following June due to the college’s “one graduation ceremony per year” policy). Two-thirds (2/3) of all units submitted to advance from one classification to another on the teachers’ and psychologists’ salary schedules shall be upper-division or graduate work. Beginning July 1, 2000, this stipulation will not apply to unit members on Columns A or B on the state preschool salary schedule. Units in excess of graduation requirements taken simultaneously with units necessary for the Bachelors Degree will not be counted. Transcripts submitted must indicate a key or some other designation as to whether or not a course is lower division, upper division, or graduate division standing. If not shown on the transcript, the unit member must provide a college catalog or other means to clarify the standing of the units. If no clarification is provided, units submitted will be considered lower division until proved otherwise.
