UMPI - Transfer Credit Report

[ss20ts]

Do you really need permission from your academic advisor if you haven't enrolled in courses yet?   For example, if someone has applied, been accepted, sent over transcripts, and received an evaluation on some of those transcripts, but has not yet registered for courses, can they not take more courses elsewhere and send those transcripts over as well before registering for courses at UMPI?

As my understanding from my academic advisor, yes. Once you've been accepted, you're pretty much enrolled that's why. It's always best to check with the school you're applying to what their policies are on courses taken after acceptance. Some schools won't take courses after you've been accepted. Some will give you a hard time. It's easier to know up front. Also keep in mind that every course isn't transferable to UMPI. You also need to complete a required number of UL's in the major at UMPI. A lot of people forget that part and are surprised that they won't take some courses. You also want to make sure you're taking a course that they will accept. They don't accept all courses or all providers.
