Transfer Credit Approval Process
Matriculated students who wish to take courses during summer/winter sessions at institutions other than 火博体育大学 and apply these courses to their Skidmore degree may obtain approval from the Office of the 注册商 before leaving campus.
Students should submit a completed Transfer Credit Approval Form for review and arrange to have the other institution send an official copy of the final transcript to the Skidmore Office of the 注册商. Please Do Not Assume Courses Will Be Transferred.
The following policies apply:
2. A maximum of 16 credits can be earned in a summer: 8 in one session + 8 in a second session (8 credits is the limit for winter term). Sessions 1 and 2 may 不 overlap 10天以上.
3. A grade of "C" or 更好的 is required for transfer credit. (C- does 不 meet this 要求.) If courses are taken on a pass/fail basis, information must be provided showing that the policy of the institution concerned is that a pass equals a "C" or 更好的.
4. Faculty advisor and Office of the 注册商 approval is required. 主席 of the appropriate department must also approve courses fulfilling major/minor 要求s. If the student wishes to enroll in a course that has no Skidmore equivalent or wishes to apply a course to an all-College 要求 such as lab science or foreign language, the appropriate chairperson's signature is required.
5. Courses taken in disciplines 不 offered at Skidmore are evaluated in consultation with department chairpersons. Courses in liberal arts may be granted credit as electives. Courses in technical or professional areas usually are 不 transferable. Courses already completed at Skidmore may 不 be repeated for credit.
6. An official transcript is required before credit can be awarded. 这是学生的 responsibility to arrange to have one sent from the institution to Skidmore.
