Common use of Academic Credit Clause in Contracts

Academic Credit. 1. I understand that I must remain a full-time student if I participate in a semester-long Program and that I must enroll in the equivalent of at least twelve (12) credit hours per semester term. I understand that if I participate in a summer, winter, or spring break program, I will enroll in a variable number of credits dependent on which Program I am participating in, and that the Program brochure indicates the number of credits awarded for such Programs. 2. I understand that the maximum number of credit hours that I am able to transfer to or from UConn is eighteen (18) credit hours per semester and thirty-six (36) credit hours per year, unless I obtain special permission to do otherwise; and eight (8) credit hours for each summer session, unless I obtain special permission, regardless of the number of credits accrued at UConn, the host organization, or institution. 3. I understand that I am responsible for obtaining course approvals from UConn or my home institution’s faculty evaluators for all courses I take, unless the course has an equivalent, pre- approved UConn course number published on the Experiential Global Learning website. UConn courses that have not been pre-approved must go through the course alignment process to be assigned equivalent UConn course numbers and credits. I agree to complete this alignment process as soon as possible, and no later than the end of the semester after I return from my Program.. Until student transcripts are received from a Host Program, Experiential Global Learning cannot post any courses or grades for the term the student participated in their program. Experiential Global Learning will maintain a placeholder course on the student’s UConn transcript until the Host Program transcript is received or for up to one year. If after one year, Experiential Global Learning still has not received a transcript from the Host Program, Experiential Global Learning may record 12 credits of UNIV 3993: Foreign Study with letter grades of “F” on the student’s UConn transcript. 4. I understand that substitutions for major, minor, and related course requirements are at the discretion of individual UConn or home institution departments and schools. 5. I understand that UConn cannot guarantee my enrollment in a given course or courses at a host Program. If I am unable to enroll in the courses that I intend to take, I am responsible for finding alternative courses and aligning them with UConn or home institution courses to ensure that I maintain my full-time status, if necessary. UConn is not responsible if I choose to cancel or withdraw my participation in a Program because of such enrollment changes. 6. I understand that, if I am a UConn student, all academic coursework I take as a part of my Program eventually will appear on my official UConn transcript with UConn course numbers, grades, and credits. I understand that the grades I earn on my program may convert to UConn’s grade system based on a consistent scale from another academic culture, but that I otherwise cannot appeal or contest a grade that I receive from my Program. Approved courses and credit will appear directly on my UConn transcript only after Experiential Global Learning has received an official transcript from my host Program, as well as course approvals for all my courses. I acknowledge that failure to follow these instructions may result in delays in my credit transfer. 7. I understand that, in order to enroll properly in coursework in my host Program, I must satisfy all prerequisites that my host Program mandates for those courses. In addition, I only may receive UConn credit for coursework taken if I have satisfied all UConn prerequisites for those course approvals. 8. I agree to adhere to the academic calendar and regulations of my host Program, as well as those of UConn and my home institution, if applicable.
