IV. Other, Non-Cornell-Affiliated Off-Campus Study [999]
Students who wish to study off campus through programs not formally
affiliated with Cornell College may petition the Academic Standing
Committee for permission to participate. Such petitions should be filed
by February 1 of the year preceding the academic year in which the
program is to be undertaken, and in any case not later than one month
before the date on which the application to the host institution or
sponsoring agency is due. There are two avenues by which such
participation may be considered:
- If approved by the Committee on behalf of Cornell and agreeable to the sponsoring
college or university, and if the duration of the program will not exceed
one academic year, the two institutions may enter into a consortium
or contractual agreement. Please contact the Office of Financial Assistance
to determine which program applies to you. Under either arrangement,
the College will consider the student to be enrolled at Cornell while
participating in the approved program, and will provide any federal
and state financial assistance to which the student is entitled. Cornell-funded
scholarship and aid monies are not generally available to students
participating in non-affiliated programs.
- Students who wish to participate in non-affiliated off-campus
programs for which consortium or contractual agreements cannot be made may petition the
Academic Standing Committee for an Academic Leave, provided the duration
of the program does not exceed 180 days. Under this agreement, the
College will not provide financial aid of any type.
The College will not accept credits by transfer (other than summer school) while a
student is on leave unless approved in advance by the Academic Standing
Committee. Grades for students participating in off-campus programs, whether by
virtue of consortium agreements or on Academic Leave, will be posted as
transfer work, i.e., as ``Credit'' only, provided grades of ``C'' or
better are earned. If, after completing the program, the participant
does not re-enroll at Cornell, the courses taken and the credits earned
in the program will not be recorded on the student's Cornell transcript
unless he or she pays a processing fee of $100 for each course transferred.
