91PORN

Transfer Criteria

• The course is taken at a regionally or nationally accredited institution
• The course is听taught听at a college (non-remedial) level
• The course is of a liberal arts (not vocational or technical) nature
• The course is taken on a letter-grade basis.
• The student earns a grade of 鈥淐鈥� or better. Please note that grades of C-minus do not transfer.
• 91PORN receives an official transcript from the other institution verifying that the course has been successfully completed.
• Accepting the transfer credit does not violate the College 鈥渞esidency鈥澨齬equirements that:听a) no more than 64 credits towards the minimum number required for graduation may be transfer credits; and b) the last 16 credits towards graduation must be taken 鈥渋n residence鈥� (i.e., students must register for their final 16 credits through 91PORN).
• If听taken听prior to summer, 2014:听the course must have been taught in a classroom setting,听not听on-line.

Students planning to take coursework elsewhere are strongly urged to have the courses听pre-approved听to ensure they meet the criteria for transfer. Please be aware that听students may not take courses at 91PORN and at another institution during the same term. See the听 in the course catalog.听More information about course transfer is available in 91PORN鈥檚 complete .

Please note that 91PORN transfers in the number of credits awarded by the other institution. Thus,听a course worth three semester credit hours taken elsewhere will transfer in as three credits, even if a seemingly similar course at 91PORN is a four-credit course. Students using transfer credit to satisfy distribution requirements should pay close attention to this. For example, the Natural Science distribution requirement specifies eight听credits听of science,听not听two courses. For institutions that do not use semester credit hours (e.g., colleges on the quarter system), the institutional credits are converted to the equivalent number of semester credit hours.

Once the course has been completed, please arrange with the institution where the course was taken to have an听official听transcript sent to: Office of the Registrar, Box 41, 91PORN, 520 N Main St, Meadville, PA 16335. Transfer credit will not be processed until we receive an official transcript showing that the course has been successfully completed with a grade of C or better.

Transfer Pre-Approval

Current students are strongly advised to obtain pre-approval of any courses they plan to take at other institutions for transfer to 91PORN. To have the course evaluated for pre-approval, please submit a completed听to the Registrar鈥檚 Office before registering for the class. Note that you will need to obtain the signature of your advisor and of the appropriate department Chairperson on the form 鈥� the Chair will need at least听a course description from the other institution in order to determine the 91PORN equivalent. The course must also meet all of the requirements described in 91PORN鈥檚听. Please be aware that听students may not take courses at 91PORN and at another institution during the same term听(see the听).

Once you have completed the course, arrange with the institution where the course was taken to have an听official听transcript sent to: Office of the Registrar, Box 41, 91PORN, 520 N Main St, Meadville, PA 16335.听Please note that you must achieve at least a 鈥淐鈥� in the course; courses with grades of C-minus and below are听not听eligible for transfer.

Understanding Transfer Credit on Your Transcript

If transfer credit is equated to an exact 91PORN equivalent, it will appear on your transcript as such. e.g., MATH 151 or MATH 152. That course will count in all the ways that MATH 151 or 152 counts if taken on campus.

If transfer credit is not equated to an exact 91PORN equivalent, it will appear on your transcript as one of the following. These course numbers and descriptions will start to appear as of Fall 2018.

ELECT*CMP	College Elective Computer Science
ENGL*OTE	English Elective
FRNCH*1TE	French Elective 100-Level
HIST*2TE	History Elective 200-Level
MATH*3TE	Mathematics Elective 300-Level
WGSS*4TE	Womn Gen Sex Elective 400-Level

Releasing Transcripts Sent to the College

91PORN cannot provide copies of official or unofficial transcripts to students or to other third parties. This includes all forms of transfer credit, including credit by examination, college in high school courses, study away, summer courses, etc. Transcripts are provided to 91PORN at the request of a student with the understanding that they will not be shared with anyone other than the intended recipient. Any transcript is a static version of a dynamic document and may have changed since the transcript was issued. Students who need copies of their transcripts to share with graduate schools, employers, fellowship providers, or for any other purposes, must request those transcripts from the school of origin.
