STUDENTS CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN 2-4 YEAR:
As a general guideline, students should be aware that if they have completed the second year in another program, upon transferring they will probably require at least an extra term to complete their degrees. If they have completed the third year in another program, they will probably require an extra year to complete their degrees.
Before submitting the Academic Plan Change Form, students must receive academic advice and a signature from their Undergraduate Chair or other advisors in the department that they want to transfer to.
The UG Chair or advisor's signature confirms that the student has received academic advice and meets the minimum requirements of the program. It does not guarantee that there will be space available, or that the transfer will be approved.”
