Transfer and Readmitted Students/Students Changing Majors

If a student transfers to the College from another postsecondary institution, the transfer credits that were accepted by the College will count as credits attempted and credits completed for purposes of calculating the student’s quantitative progress. The corresponding grades will not count toward the student’s qualitative progress.

If a student is re-admitted into the College, changes program of study, or seeks to earn an additional credential, the credits that are applicable to the student’s current program of study will be included in determining the student’s Satisfactory Academic Progress standing and the appropriate evaluation level for the student in terms of establishing the total number of credits attempted and completed at each of the student’s evaluation periods.

Students receiving federal financial aid may repeat a course in accordance with the College’s academic policy. Credits from both course attempts will be counted in total credits attempted and in minimum cumulative credits completed at the College, but only the highest grade earned will be included in the calculation of minimum cumulative GPA. Credits from both course attempts will also count towards the Maximum Time Frame for Completion. Students may receive financial aid for each repeated course provided that a student may not repeat a passed course more than once.
