Information for Students. Students who began CSN’s program prior to the effective date of this agreement may use the agreement to the extent that the program requirements followed are consistent with this agreement. A copy of this agreement should be brought to all advising sessions. This transfer agreement was developed to provide a smooth curriculum transition for students who want to earn an associate degree from CSN and transfer to NSC to earn a Bachelor of Applied Science in Allied Health Sciences. The agreement is designed to minimize loss of credits and duplication of coursework in transferring.
1. Students should complete the Certificate of Completion in Allied Health Sciences and the Associate of Applied Science in Diagnostic Medical Sonography (Cardiac/Vascular Ultrasound track) at CSN and the coordinated program of study for the Bachelor of Applied Science in Allied Health Sciences at NSC as indicated in this transfer guide. Any course substitutions should be made with the guidance of an advisor or counselor to assure that all requirements are met.
2. The completion of the associate of arts, associate of science, and associate of business degree at a community college automatically fulfills the lower-division general education requirements at any other NSHE institution. An associate of applied science degree does not automatically fulfill lower-division general education requirements.
3. Only courses with a grade of D or higher will be accepted for transfer to NSC. A course completed with a grade of less than 1.7, if counted toward graduation at the community college, may be used to satisfy NSC graduation requirements. However, the course will have to be repeated if the NSC major specifies a higher GPA for all students in the Bachelor of Applied Science in Allied Health Sciences. If a CSN course has more credits than the NSC equivalent course, the additional credits will be included in the program total as general transfer credit.
4. NSC requires that a minimum of 30 upper-division credit hours must be completed in residence at NSC.
5. Students may elect to graduate under the course catalog graduation requirements under any of the following options, provided that the course catalog at the time of graduation is not more than ten years old:
a. The course catalog of the year of enrollment in a baccalaureate level course/program at a NSHE community college (valid transfer agreement may be required.)
b. The course catalog of the year of transfer into a baccalaureate level pro...

Information for Students. Full information about fee levels and bursary entitlement will be published in the prospectus and in other publicity leaflets. The institution already produces a guide to students on financial support and advice that is currently sent to all new students. This will be extended to include reference to the new fee and bursary arrangements. It will also include advice on living costs and advice on opportunities to combine full time study with part time employment. This is a particular strength of the University of Worcester where the Students’ Union, in collaboration with Job Centre Plus, has pioneered a Job Point, the first of its kind to be located in an HEI. Where there are specific and additional costs associated with a course (e.g. courses in Art and Design and Outdoor Recreation Management) these will be set out at the time of the offer letter as well as referred to in course leaflets. A new area of the University’s web-site will be developed, which will provide a comprehensive guide to the financial aspects of study. The institution employs a Financial Adviser to students and this post provides the focus for the provision of information and advice to applicants and students. Staff in the Marketing and Admissions offices also provide financial information and advice to potential students, through schools liaison, UCAS Fairs and other recruitment activities. A further financial adviser has been appointed to provide additional financial advice and guidance to students.
Information for Students. 4.1 The College will provide clear information about tuition fees that apply to its full- time HE courses and the financial support available to students through its HE prospectus, course brochures, leaflets and its web site. The advice and guidance teams at each centre of the college will advise prospective students at inquiry on the details of tuition fees and the support that is available.
4.2 All students accepted onto an HE course will have a written statement identifying fees payable for the duration of their course. Briefing events for potential students for the College’s HE provision will include information on tuition fees.

Information for Students. The University will continue to ensure that all prospective students are informed of the aggregate amount of fees that the institution will charge for the completion of the course. The University will expand its provision of Information, Advice and Guidance to ensure that potential applicants are aware of how the student funding system works and how it will affect them. The provision of information to students will complement the existing highly respected and successful forms of advice and guidance. The University will communicate with potential applicants in the following ways. Face to face activities through the recruitment team at Higher Education Fairs, Parents’ Evenings and Careers and Options events – locally, regionally and nationally. Targeted applicant support communications using on-line and digital media. Information directly into Schools via local, regional and national mailings for distribution to students. Development of web-based information for key influencers such as parents and subject teachers, FAQs etc. Development of the University website to include Key Information Sets for the use of key influencers and prospective applicants. Information and events targeted at professionals in the advice and guidance and subject specialists (Heads of Sixth Forms/Heads of Careers/Subject Teachers). Standard printed and on-line publications which reach a wide audience e.g. prospecti and newsletters, course specific information. Pre-entry activities delivered into schools/colleges and on-campus via our Passport Scheme e.g. Discovery Days, Lecture Series, Transition activities, Open Days, Applicant Open Days and Visit Days. The University has introduced a student funding element into all information and pre-entry activities and has enhanced its provision of individual advice and guidance to applicants through the extension of its financial advice services. This provides additional information about the costs of study (including tuition and living costs), the availability of funding to support study and support in developing money management skills.
Information for Students. The University has established mechanisms to address the provision of financial information, advice and guidance to potential and enrolled students. These include a Student Financial Support Service and a partnership with the Student Union Advice Centre. The partnership includes the University resourcing a 'money' advice service in the Student Union Advice Centre. In addition, the University provides an Education Guidance Service and a Schools and Colleges Liaison Office through which financial information and advice are also delivered. The University proposes to develop and enhance its financial information, advice and guidance to prospective and enrolled students by: • extending the skills set of the staff within the Student Financial Support Service. This will mean that in addition to advice on the financial support schemes available. Budgeting advice will also be provided; • developing and producing electronic, printed and multi-media materials, in readiness for 2006; to include information for students about the aggregate cost of their course before the course commences; • enhancing staff development, and providing briefings and updates to ensure deliverers of student support are well informed and able to provide accurate and timely information, advice and signposting; and • developing the existing partnership with the Student Union Advice Centre. Further details of these developments, including estimated costs are provided in Appendix 6.
