Evaluations are not completed prior to acceptance. In general, UGA does not accept a course if it is a workshop, practicum, colloquium, or internship. Credit Summaries Accepted transfer students receive credit evaluations in the form of a computer printout. The information is maintained in the student database, which is accessible by admissions, records, and advising personnel. Since Fall 1976, grades earned on transfer work have been recorded onto the student's permanent record when the student matriculates at the University.
Students receive their credit printouts with their acceptance materials or soon thereafter.
When additional transcripts are received, new transfer credit is added to previous work, the overall grade point average is recalculated and a new print-out is sent reflecting the changes. Since Fall 1985, evaluations of credit for new incoming transfers, current UGA students, and former UGA students have been completed on an on-line system in the Admissions Office. Updated credit summaries are issued when any additional transfer work is posted to a student's academic record. Satisfaction of requirements, such as the Regents' Exam, is also on-line. Credit summaries indicate the grade point average of all transfer credit that has been posted to the student's academic record.
