Academic Regulations

Extramural Study

Enrollment Limits

Extramural students who have graduated from high school or hold a GED or an associate's degree may register only for undergraduate courses. Those who have a bachelor's or an advanced degree may register for either undergraduate or graduate courses. Registrants must meet the prerequisites for any course. Extramural students may enroll for a cumulative total of 18 undergraduate credits before applying to an undergraduate degree program. More than 18 credits may be taken only if the student does not wish to participate in a degree program and signs a statement to that effect. Extramural students who enroll in graduate courses are subject to the guidelines on transfer of credit outlined in the Ithaca College graduate catalog. No more than 12 graduate credits taken as an extramural student may be applied to a graduate degree at Ithaca College.

Credits earned on an extramural basis may be transferred to an Ithaca College degree program, although this transfer is not guaranteed. All transfer credits are subject to approval by the appropriate dean. Anyone wishing to enter an undergraduate degree program must apply to the College's Office of Admission, 100 Job Hall, Ithaca, NY 14850-7014; phone 607-274-3124. Application for graduate study should be made to the Division of Graduate and Professional Studies, 111 Towers Concourse; phone 607-274-3527.

Qualifications

Ithaca College reserves the right to suspend the eligibility of any student who does not maintain a passing cumulative grade point average (2.00). All dismissals from the extramural study program are at the discretion of the programs director for the Division of Graduate and Professional Studies.
