Transient Students to Other Institutions

Outgoing Transient Students

 

Daytona State College (home institution) students currently enrolled in a degree or certificate program who want to take a course(s) at another regionally accredited institution (host institution) must meet all the criteria below:

  • Be applicable to the student’s current degree or certificate program of study requirements at Daytona State College; course descriptions may be required. DSC will not approve transient requests for upper-level course(s) to fulfill a lower-level program requirement.

  • Dual enrolled students are not permitted to be considered for transient status due to articulation agreement. 

  • Have successfully completed the appropriate prerequisite(s) for each transient course requested.

  • Already have met all placement requirements for the requested courses. If applicable, test scores for placement must not be expired.

  • Obtain approval from the Veteran’s Affairs Office if student is receiving Veteran’s Benefits.

  • Be in good academic, financial and judicial standing, with no absolute holds.

  • Have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better. (First-semester DSC students also must be co-enrolled in Daytona State College courses.)

 

All tuition and fees owed to the host institution are to be paid directly to that institution. If applicable, potential reimbursement via financial aid would follow. Students who attempt transient courses at a host institution must provide an official transcript with final grades from the host institution upon completion of the transient courses. Failure to provide DSC with an official transcript from the host institution may affect a student's financial aid status, if applicable.

 

As an exception to DSC’s Records office general transfer grade amnesty policy, all transient course attempts, including those with grades of F or W, will be posted to a student's Daytona State transcript and will be computed in the GPA along with the credits earned at DSC.
