Transfer Enrollment Permission
Instructions for requesting an enrollment permission based on the completion of a
course at another institution:
- This is provided specifically and solely to allow you to request an enrollment permission for a Fall semester mathematics
course at MSU based upon your commitment to complete the prerequisite mathematics
course at another institution during the summer.
- Because this service checks the prerequisites for the Fall course, it will accept
your request for an enrollment permission if and ONLY if you are planning to take the prerequisite course during the summer. For example,
if you want to elect MTH 133 at MSU in the Fall, and you are enrolled in the equivalent
to MSU's MTH 132 this summer at Princeton, then this service will allow you to request
an enrollment permission, so that you may enroll in the Fall semester for MSU's MTH
133.
- BEFORE SUBMITTING THIS REQUEST, YOU must verify that the course that you plan to take this summer will, in fact, transfer
to MSU as the prerequisite for your Fall course. The simplest way to do this is to
view MSU's list of transferable courses. If either the institution or the course that you plan to take this summer does not
appear in MSU's list, please call 353-0844 to meet with a math adviser, who will evaluate
your transfer course.
REMEMBER: IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO:
-
Verify, in advance, that your off-campus summer course will be accepted by MSU!
- Request that an official transcript be sent by the Registrar's office at your summer
institution to the Office of Admissions, 250 Administration Building, MSU, East Lansing
MI 48824-1046.
We expect your transfer credit to be entered into your MSU academic record by August 20th however, if it is not, you will be sent ONE e-mail reminder.
If your credit is still not entered by the end of the first full week of class, then, without any further notice, your registration in your fall course at MSU will be cancelled.
- AVOID asking for a comprehensive transcript from your summer institution; instead, request an official transcript for ONLY the one term during which you took the course(s) at that institution. If there are several transcript types available to you, ask which of the official transcripts can be delivered most quickly. (Some schools can even prepare a 'hand-carried' official transcript while you wait.) Past experience teaches that, by requesting the wrong type, you could delay the delivery of your transcript by several weeks.
