 In the year (circle one):          2010          2011          2012

This work must be completed by the end of the term listed above. Students may meet two of their general education requirements beyond the core curriculum with 3-credit courses. Additional general education courses may be transferred if they are equal to or greater than the Samford requirement (e.g., two 3-credit courses to meet a 4-credit requirement). Sixteen (16) credits may be completed during the summer months, and eighteen (18) credits may be completed during the Fall and Spring semesters. Credits for a course taken at another institution must equal at least 75% of the Samford credit for the course (at least a 3-credit course to meet a 4-credit course at Samford).

The student is responsible for requesting an international transcript evaluation from AACRAO (http://www.aacrao.org/international/) or WES (www.wes.org). Requesting a copy of the actual international transcript is optional, although encouraged. International transcripts should be sent to: Transfer & Credit Analyst, Student Records, Samford University (see top of page for full address).
