Undergraduate Residency Requirement

Residency is defined as coursework completed at West Coast University, either on ground or online (does not include transfer or challenge credit).  A minimum of 25% of credit units for any given program of study offered by West Coast University must be completed in residence.  For example, if a student is enrolled in a program offered at West Coast University in which there are 120 credit units required for graduation, the student must complete 30 credit units in residence.  Students should note that these University requirements are superseded by program-specific residency requirements and therefore should consult the specific academic program of interest for further instruction.
