One year of full-time graduate education is considered to be the number of credit hours that the school attended has determined to represent 1 year of full-time study.

(NOTE: You must include copies of your transcript(s) with your application to verify eligibility.) OR Have a combination of the specialized experience education described above such that the percentage of required experience plus the percentage of required education equals 100%. (To calculate, first determine your total number of graduate semester hours, and divide that number by 18. Next, divide the total number of months of qualifying experience by 12. Then, add your percentage of education and experience. The two percentages must total at least 100% for you to qualify based on your combination of education and experience.) Only graduate education in excess of two years (i.e., 36 semester hours or above the Master's level) may be combined with experience. (NOTE: You must include copies of your transcript(s) with your application to verify eligibility.) Merit promotion applicants must meet time-in-grade requirement as defined in 5 CFR 300, Subpart F.

Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.
