Request to Register at Another Institution
A Barry student is expected to fulfill all coursework at Barry University. Barry University students who wish to take courses at another institution for the purpose of transferring the credits back to Barry must obtain prior written approval from the dean of the Barry University school within which the student’s major is offered. Substitute coursework intended to satisfy graduation requirements will only be accepted when this approval has been granted in advance by the dean on the TRANSIENT STUDENT COURSE REQUEST FORM. This form must be submitted to the office of the dean a minimum of thirty days prior to the anticipated class start date. A copy of the course description from the respective institution’s catalog must be included with the form. Additional documents (e.g., course syllabus) may also be requested in order to validate that the content of the substituted course is comparable to Barry’s course.
All policies described in the “Transfer Credit Policies” apply. In addition, grades and GPAs for substituted coursework will not be included in the minimum of 56 credit hours of completed coursework at Barry used to determine “graduation with honors.”
Students who have obtained junior status (60+ cr. hrs.) may not transfer credits from a community college or junior college.
