During your exchange

While you鈥檙e busy exploring and learning abroad, here are a few things that will help you ensure a smooth transition back to 海角社区:

Keep all course materials

Graded exams, essays, evaluation rubrics, syllabi, and reading lists may be needed by your 海角社区 Faculty Advisor聽to approve your courses for transfer credit.

Regularly check your 海角社区 email

That鈥檚 how we stay in touch! Keep an eye out for important notices and information about 海角社区 course registration, fees, graduation, and more. In case of an emergency, 海角社区 will contact you via your 海角社区 email so be sure to check it regularly.聽

Register for 海角社区 courses for the upcoming term (if applicable)

If you expect to return to 海角社区 after your exchange program, be sure to register for your 海角社区 courses by applicable deadlines to avoid late registration fees.

Apply to graduate (if applicable)

If you are a graduating student, you might have to apply for graduation on Minerva while on exchange. Failure to do so may jeopardize or postpone your graduation!

Arrange to have your transcript sent to 海角社区

Your transcript is an essential part of the credit transfer process and it is your responsibility to ensure that there are no holds on your records at the host university so that your transcript may be released to 海角社区.

Transcripts from host universities (in paper or electronic format) become the property of 海角社区 and will not be returned to you or forwarded to another institution. If you want a copy for your own records, make sure to request it before leaving.
