TRANSIENT APPROVAL FORM
You are considered a transient student if you enroll at UWG to take advanced coursework that will transfer back to
your home institution, so that you may complete your coursework there.
Transient students are classified as non-degree seeking, and are not normally eligible to continue studies at UWG
with the intent of obtaining a degree.
Once you are admitted as a transient student, you are eligible to take classes during the approved semester only.
Admission as a transient does not imply or guarantee future enrollment at UWG.
STEPS FOR THE STUDENT:
Step 1: Contact the ISAP office and set up a meeting to determine if you are eligible to be a transient student.
Step 2: Meet with academic advisors at both UWG and your home institution to ensure you understand how the courses
will transfer and be applied to your current program.
Step 3: Fill out section 1, 2 and 3 of this form and have a DSO from your current institution fill out section 4. They may
need information from UWG to approve your transient status. Please check with their international office to see what
documents are required.
