Please check of the following statements and sign below to confirm your understanding of each:
_____ Plattsburgh reserves the right to deny the transfer of credits/courses that have not been pre-approved. Students will not receive duplicate credit if the courses listed above are repeats of
courses completed at Plattsburgh or transferred from another institution. Minimum grade of D is required for transfer unless a grade higher than a D is required in that course.
_____ Grades will not count toward the Plattsburgh GPA for National Student Exchange students. Study abroad students may request their grades be counted as part of their GPA by contacting the
Registrar’s Office at registrar@plattsburgh.edu
. This must be completed before the end of the semester after the study away program and must include all grades earned.
_____ Students who will study away during their last semester must contact the Registrar’s Office at registrar@plattsburgh.edu about graduation requirements before departing.
_____ Students studying away must complete a minimum of 36 credits on the Plattsburgh campus. Questions about residency requirements should be addressed to registrar@plattsburgh.edu.
_____ Students on a non-SUNY, SUNY community college, or Canadian university program must request their transcript be sent to the Global Education Office upon completion of their program.
_____ It is the responsibility of the student to seek approval for courses taken on a study away program. This form must be updated if course selections change before departure or while away.
_____ I certify my understanding that I may only receive federal and state aid for courses that are required for my degree. I also understand that if I enroll in courses that are not required for my degree, I
may lose all or a portion of my financial aid. I have already discussed or plan to discuss the impact of this study-abroad program on my eligibility for financial aid.
