Students must complete at least 45 units of instruction for the MA portion of their MA/MBA joint degree. The following constraints are placed on those 45 units:

All courses must be at or above the 100 level - courses numbered below 100 do not count toward the MA degree
At least 23 units must be at or above the 200 level (course and course can count toward this requirement)
At least 15 units must be completed for a letter grade (as opposed to Credit/No Credit or Pass/Fail)
At least 35 of the 45 units must be from courses offered by the Graduate School of Education (EDUC units). If a student wishes to earn the remaining 10 units outside of the Graduate School of Education (non EDUC units), the student is expected to submit a petition by the end of week one of the quarter during which the student enrolls in the course, explaining how these units relate to and support the student’s educational goals. GSB courses are not eligible for approval by petition
All petitions for non-EDUC units must be finalized by the final study list deadline of spring quarter in the second year
A maximum of 10 cross-listed units may count toward both degrees
A maximum of 6 independent study units (e.g., internship, directed reading, directed research) from the Graduate School of Education may be applied toward the MA degree
A 3.0 GPA must be maintained for all letter-graded courses applied to the MA degree
Students may not enroll in Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP) courses
Any other course policies outlined in the MBA Student Handbook apply
