College of the Liberal Arts Change of Campus Guidelines
To better inform students, the advising community, faculty, staff, and constituents of the college Change of Campus review procedure, the following information provided is specific to the College of the Liberal Arts and linked to the academic programs and policies within the college.
Transfer From a Campus to University Park
Baccalaureate students are expected to complete two full years (60 credits) of academic work at their location of admission. If pursuing a Liberal Arts major, students are required to transfer to UP to finish the remaining requirements for their degree programs. If the student participates in the Entrance to Major process, completes the requirements and has earned > 43.1 credits by the end of the appropriate fall semester then a change of campus will be automatically processed. If the student has less than 43.1 credits or is not a part of the ETM process, the student must file a change of campus request at the Registrar’s Office at their location.
Students requesting an early change to University Park obtain approval from the Registrar’s Office at their campus and then at University Park in order to process the change. Early changes of location to University Park are generally based on semester classification and availability of program-essential courses at the campus location. The college completes an academic review of each request and approves or denies it based on semester classification and campus course availability. All reviews are academic and consider normal progress toward degree completion. Exceptions to this policy are rare. The student is then notified of the decision electronically It is important that students do not make housing arrangements at University Park until they have been approved for a change of location.
