A candidate who has received a baccalaureate degree from this university,
or who has fulfilled the conditions above specified under Entrance
Requirements, is entitled to a master's degree upon his successful completion

No C course which a candidate has offered as part of the work credited
for baccalaureate degree (pp. 156-157) may be counted for a master's degree.
A candidate must take at least two graduate courses during the last
