You may want to take advantage of your breaks from SU to take classes at a school near your home. To make sure that those classes meet your graduation and degree requirements, this helpful information is for you.
If you want take classes at another institution, you need to complete the Request to Study at Another Institution form. The form is available online from the “Forms” section of the
The form must be submitted to the Registrar's Office PRIOR to enrolling in a course at another institution. Course descriptions may be required for some courses. You should carefully follow all instructions on the form in order to gain approval to take the courses. Official transcripts are required upon completion of any courses taken at another institution and should be sent to the Registrar’s Office.
You are limited in the total number of credits that can transfer from another institution. A total of 70 credits can transfer from a two-year institution and a combined total of 90 credits can transfer from a four-year institution. Additionally, students are required to complete 30 of their last 37 credits at ÃÛÌÒav for residency purposes.
While all students need to go through the official Request to Study process, if you are taking a course at a Maryland community college, you can refer to an articulation system within Maryland, that shows the transferability of courses from Maryland community colleges to Maryland four-year schools. ARTSYS should only be used as an unofficial planning tool.
If you receive a grade of D/F in a course at SU and retake the same course at another institution, the D/F grade remains at ÃÛÌÒav. You cannot repeat the same course at another institution and receive the other institution’s grade. You should always consult with your academic advisor prior to retaking a course as some SU academic programs (such as Henson and Perdue) and/or specific majors do not allow you to repeat a course elsewhere.
