Credits earned in a year during which you were exempt will carry forward only to the extent that they would have if you were not exempt. For example, if you submitted 16 General credits and six Ethics/Professionalism credits in a year you were exempt, then four of the General credits and three of the Ethics/Professionalism credits would carry forward to the next non-exempt year. If you earned 16 online credits in a year you were exempt, eight would carry forward to the next year. See Regulation 4A.
