Since many Kenyon students arrive on campus with computing skills, a great deal of informal learning and skill-sharing also occurs. Generally speaking, Kenyon College accepts credit in transfer from other regionally accredited colleges and universities. As with other matters concerning transferring credit to Kenyon, questions about specific transfer requests should be directed to the Registrar . Kenyon supports electronic course reserves and many faculty have chosen to incorporate them into their courses. All Kenyon faculty have access to networked computers.
