External Course Pre-approval

External Course Pre-Approval Form

This form is required of undergraduate students intending to take courses outside of AUP; it determines the equivalencies they will received when transferred back to AUP.
It is recommended that students have twice as many courses pre-approved than needed in order to give the student flexibility once on-site at the external institution.
No more than 64 transfer credits can be used towards a degree. 50% of all upper-level coursework (3000 and 4000 level courses) in the major must be completed at AUP, and no more than 8 transfer credits can be used to complete a minor.
No more than 18 transfer credits are allowed post-matriculation unless completed in an AUP approved exchange program, and the final 16 credits prior to graduation must be completed at AUP.
Only students with a GPA of 2.5 or greater may take external courses for transfer.
Official, final transcripts from the external institution must be received by AUP's Registrar Office within one semester after course completion to finalize the transfer of credits.
Grade C is the minimum passing grade for transfer courses.
3-credit EN course taken online should not be counted as a replacement for one of our 4-credit ones
