The policies that follow apply to the transfer of undergraduate credit toward an undergraduate degree program at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn.
Transfer applicants are prospective students who have graduated from high school and have previously attempted coursework at another regionally accredited college or university for credit (other than college credits taken while in high school).
Potential transfer students who have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.000 from regionally accredited institution(s) and who have earned at least 24 transferable credit hours or 36 quarter hours as determined by Â鶹´«Ã½Porn are evaluated on the transfer admission standards. For these applicants, Â鶹´«Ã½Porn must receive the following credentials:
Potential transfer students with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.000 and who have fewer than 24 transferable credit hours or 36 quarter hours as determined by Â鶹´«Ã½Porn are evaluated on both the transfer and freshman admission standards. For these applicants, Â鶹´«Ã½Porn must receive the following credentials:
Potential transfer students with a cumulative GPA less than 2.000 may apply but do not meet Â鶹´«Ã½Porn's admission standards and as such are not guaranteed admission to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. These applicants must adhere to earlier deadlines and Â鶹´«Ã½Porn must receive all required application materials, listed below, by the appropriate deadline. Each application is reviewed by an academic committee that will make the final decision whether to approve or deny admission. These applicants are strongly encouraged to successfully establish a GPA of at least 2.000, perhaps by attending a regionally accredited community college, before applying for admission to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn.
Students who have been academically suspended from their most recently attended college or university or at any point within the past year may not be admitted to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. These students must sit out the duration of one academic year (one Fall semester and one Spring semester) following their suspension before they may apply for admission to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. Once these students become eligible to apply for admission to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn, they will be subject to the same policies as those with a cumulative GPA less than 2.000.
To be considered for regular admission, transfer applicants must have a GPA of at least 2.000, while admission with conditions may be granted to a selective and limited number of students who do not meet all the criteria for regular admission.
When Â鶹´«Ã½Porn receives transcripts from another institution, the transcripts are considered property of Â鶹´«Ã½Porn from the moment they are initially received. Â鶹´«Ã½Porn does not reproduce or copy transcripts received from any sending institutions. Students should seek copies of transcripts from the institution that originally issued the transcript.
In order to complete an undergraduate degree program at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn, students must meet all the applicable degree requirements outlined by their , receive approval from the appropriate representatives within their academic department(s), and apply for graduation through the Office of the Registrar.
There are many specific requirements regarding the number of credit hours that must be taken at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn in order to complete a degree, which transfer students need to know and keep in mind as they make progress toward completing a degree program at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. For further details, please refer to the outlined by the Office of the Registrar.
The Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) and other Kentucky public institutions developed and approved the general education to facilitate student progress toward graduation and to ease the transition between state institutions within Kentucky. Under this agreement, students who complete a general education category at their sending Kentucky public institution will also have that category fulfilled in the framework at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn.
In addition to general education, the Baccalaureate Program Transfer Frameworks identify 12 hours of coursework in specific majors that may be successfully transferred. Each framework has a specific guide to the exact courses that a student needs to follow. Students should work closely with academic advisors at their original institutions to ensure they are taking framework courses that will transfer as desired to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn.
The Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) established College Readiness Standards for all incoming freshmen and transfer students with fewer than 24 semester credits. Failure to meet one of the standards constitutes a deficiency.
Students who do not meet the college readiness standards are required to take a placement test in every area in which the standard is not met. Placement tests must be taken prior to orientation and/or registration in any course at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. Each placement test can be taken only once. Students register for placement tests online through .
The current College Readiness Standards established by the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education are as follows:
Students with any academic deficiencies are required to enroll in all necessary developmental courses during their first two semesters at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. Please be aware, these developmental courses do not contribute to the credits required for graduation and will not be calculated in the GPA. The following developmental courses are available at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn:
Students must complete their developmental courses prior to completing 45 credit hours at the 100 level or above. Students who do not remove their academic deficiencies by the time they complete 45 credit hours will not be permitted to continue enrollment at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn. Students may take courses at another institution to meet their academic deficiencies and then return to Â鶹´«Ã½Porn to finish their degree. For further details, please refer to the website.
Please be aware, some college-level courses have a prerequisite that is higher than the College Readiness Standards set by CPE and could result in a student needing to take a developmental course(s). Additionally, some academic programs or courses may require higher ACT, SAT, or COMPASS test scores as prerequisites to enter those programs or courses.
Post-Baccalaureate students are those who have already received a Bachelor's degree. These students are not required to take general education courses at Â鶹´«Ã½Porn; they are only required to complete the requirements for their program of study.
Transfer coursework for Post-Baccalaureate students is not sent from the Office of Admissions to academic departments for an official evaluation as it would be for transfer students. Should these students need an evaluation of a specific course or courses to satisfy a prerequisite requirement, they should contact the chair of the academic department. When doing so, they are encouraged to bring the original catalog and/or a course description of the course they completed from the original institution.
If students believe that a course on their Transfer Credit Evaluation should be given further consideration toward a different Â鶹´«Ã½Porn course equivalency, they can request a review of the evaluation by following this re-evaluation process.
General Education: Students seeking re-evaluation of a course for Foundation of Knowledge credit will need to work with their academic advisor to submit a request via the degree audit. Students must supply the original course syllabus for assured consideration of their request. The decision of the Vice Provost is final and will automatically reflect in the degree audit if approved. More information on this process can be found by in the .
Major Requirement: Students seeking re-evaluation of a course toward a major, minor, or area of concentration requirement, will need to work with their academic advisor to submit a request to the Adult and Transfer Center. The ATC will contact the chair of the academic department. It is encouraged that they supply the original course syllabus along with a written request of re-evaluation. The decision of the academic department is final.
Courses approved and recommended by the American Council of Education's publication, Guide to Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Forces will be considered for credit.
