For Harvard Extension School, do you take the admissions requirement courses first?

Just curious if one could take the Poetry in America courses, and then maybe take the HES admissions requirement courses after the fact, and still have the PiA ones applied to your grad degree requirements? Or do they require you to take things in order?

Also, how easy are these to transfer to other grad schools that take transfer credit?

Thanks in advance, and here's the link for anyone that might not know what I'm talking about:

You can go this route, just be careful that this will "start the clock" on your graduation time though. Depending on the program, you have 5 or 6 years to finish your degree (depending on the program) from the time you begin taking classes. The credits are dropped on a rolling basis, so if 5 or 6 years from now, you still haven't finished your degree, these poetry courses will "fall off" your transcript and no longer be used as credits towards your degree.

As for admissions. You can take the courses in any order. They impose a fee of 100 or $200 if you apply to be admitted after you've already completed too many courses. I don't remember the exact number of courses that triggers this fee, but its around 5 or 6. Theoretically, you could take all the courses required to graduate before your admitted, then take the courses required for enrollment, so long as you're fine with paying that fee.
