For the following reason(s):
After consulting with your Adviser/Program Chair and Dean, you may be granted permission to take courses at another institution and
apply them to your degree program at Utica College. This form is used to ensure that the courses you wish to take are acceptable for
transfer. If you plan to take courses at another institution, you should be aware of the following:
Courses taken at another institution and accepted for credit at Utica College will be transferred in as “hours passed.” Letter grades and grade points
will not be recorded (the course will not affect your Utica College GPA).
Courses must be taken at a regionally-accredited college or university.
Credit will be added to your record upon receipt of an official (sealed) transcript from the college you attended.
It is the student’s responsibility to supply the Registrar’s Office with an official (sealed) transcript.
Courses must be applicable to your degree program at Utica College.
Questions about which classes can be transferred are answered by your adviser. The Registrar’s Office cannot advise about planning transfer
credit.
Undergraduate Student Requirements:
Minimum grade for transfer: C
Your last 30 credit hours granted toward your Utica College degree must be earned at Utica College. If you have already earned a total of 90 credit
hours toward your degree and wish to take a class at another institution, you must file a petition to waive the residency requirement with the Office of
Student Success (111 Hubbard Hall, 315-223-2555). This is why you must enter the number of hours you will have at the end of the current semester.
A maximum of 60 credits may be earned from any combination of community colleges.
Courses taken through the Study Abroad Program should use the “Permission to Study Abroad” form.
Graduate Student Requirements:
Minimum grade for transfer: B
A maximum of six (6) transfer credits can be applied to a graduate degree.
Courses Planned (must attach course descriptions, course description must include name of college):
I have reviewed this plan with the student and find these courses acceptable to meet college requirements as listed above.

The student does not have permission to take the course(s) listed until the Office of the Registrar signs this form, even if the
