If I attended another institution prior to 海角社区, can I transfer in the education courses I took at the other institution?

Education courses taken at other institutions will automatically transfer in to 海角社区 as electives. If you think a course you took at another institution would be equivalent to a course we require at 海角社区, you can request a course substitution for that particular course.

Course Substitution Instructions

*Transferred courses and/or credits used to meet approved program requirements in professional studies, instructional support, or other approved program requirements (courses other than general studies and Arts and Sciences type courses used to meet academic major requirements) must have been completed at a regionally accredited institution that prepares teachers on the same degree level of certification.

After I have been admitted to 海角社区's Educator Preparation Program, can I take a transient course at another institution and then transfer it back in to 海角社区?

Candidates who wish to take coursework at another institution and transfer those credits back in to 海角社区 must secure pre-approval from the Dean of the college in which the course(s) are taught for both the enrollment and the specific courses to be taken. Candidates on academic probation, academic warning, or conditional admission cannot be approved for transient work. Candidates may not receive transient approval for courses failed in residence at 海角社区. Candidates seeking transient approval for work at a junior or community college should be aware that a minimum of 64 semester hours must be earned from 海角社区 or other senior institutions to fulfill graduation requirements.

Transient Approval Form

*Transferred courses and/or credits used to meet approved program requirements in professional studies, instructional support, or other approved program requirements (courses other than general studies and Arts and Sciences type courses used to meet academic major requirements) must have been completed at a regionally accredited institution that prepares teachers on the same degree level of certification.

What do I need to do for an instructor to write me a letter of recommendation?

First you need to fill out and sign a FERPA form and give it to the instructor from whom you are requesting the letter of recommendation. The instructor will review the form and write you a letter of recommendation at his/her discretion.
