Students maintaining continuous enrollment at
any public Arizona community college or university may graduate according to
the requirements of the catalog in effect at the time of initial enrollment or
according to the requirements of any single catalog in effect during subsequent
terms of continuous enrollment. Students may maintain continuous enrollment
whether attending a single public community college or university in Arizona or
transferring among public institutions in Arizona while pursuing their degrees.

A semester in which a student earns course credit will be counted toward
continuous enrollment. Non-credit courses, audited courses, failed courses, or
courses from which the student withdraws do not count toward the determination
of continuous enrollment for catalog purposes.

considered continuously enrolled, and must meet requirements of the public
Arizona community college or university catalog in effect at the time they are
readmitted or of any single catalog in effect during subsequent terms of continuous
enrollment after readmission. Students are not obligated to enroll and earn
course credit during summer terms, but summer enrollment may be used to
maintain continuous enrollment status.
