Student Status
Full-Time and Part-Time
...
Many students transfer into the iSchool from another graduate program within SU, or another institution. As an incoming transfer student, there are a few items to keep in mind:
No scholarships awarded to students by another school will transfer into the iSchool
International students with a non-STEM visa who are coming into a STEM program, and international students who are transferring into a program with a higher or lower number of credits needed to graduate, must notify the Center for International Services so that they can report the facts of their present situation to immigration services for potential visa adjustment
Students may petition to transfer a maximum of 6 credits of elective courses into their master’s program from outside of the iSchool or from another institution. Students who want to transfer in courses from other Universities are required to submit a Petition to Transfer Credits form. Students who want to count courses from other SU programs are required to submit a Petition to Faculty form. All classes being transferred in, whether from SU or outside of SU require a minimum grade of B, the course completed must be graduate level, and credits must have been earned within seven years of when the student graduates from the iSchool. Petition forms can be found here:
https://su-jsm.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ischool/Advising+Forms
and must be submitted to
(campus students) or
studentsupport@ischoolonline.syr.edu
(online students).
Pursuing Two Programs
While there is no such thing as a “dual” degree at the graduate level, students can enroll in two master’s degrees concurrently. New York State Education Department, NYSED, limits the counting of credits towards multiple programs to protect the academic integrity of each degree and/or program. When a student is counting credits towards multiple programs the following restrictions apply:
The student must be admitted to the degree program in each of the awarding departments/colleges.
In no instance shall course credit be counted more than twice in satisfaction of the program requirements .
In order to earn two or more degrees and/or programs, including a C.A.S., students must earn a minimum of 80 percent of the combined total of SU credits normally required for each of the degrees. Meaning, only up to 20% of the credit hours for the two degrees may be double counted.
Please contact your academic advisor for more information.
