| Students
desiring to change their program of study must complete a Change of
Program Form available in the Office of Admissions. The requirements
for the new program will be checked against the student's test scores
and/or former course work. Retesting and/or Learning Support course
work may be required. Once the form is completed and approved, copies
will be distributed to the appropriate department and the Office of
Financial Aid. Program changes may significantly impact a student's
educational and career goals. Students should discuss this change
with their academic advisor prior to initiating the change process.
Career counselors
are a valuable resource in assisting students with career choices.
Students who are receiving benefits under student assistance programs
(federal student aid, veteran's benefits) should discuss the possible
impact of the change on the receipt of benefits. These programs
have specific guidelines concerning changes of program. Not all
credits earned under one program may necessarily apply to the new
program. In some cases, changing programs may lengthen the time
required to complete a program. The decision concerning transferability
of credits is made by the receiving department head and the Registrar.
Students must fill out a Request for Transfer Credit form and submit
the form to the Registrar. |
