Accepted applicants who have attended any college or university may be granted advanced standing according to the following policies:
Transfer credit may be accepted from degree-granting institutions that are fully accredited at the collegiate level by their appropriate regional accrediting agency. The regional accrediting agencies are: Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, New England Association of Colleges and Schools, Northwest Association of Colleges and Schools, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and Western Association of Colleges and Schools. Provisions may be considered when an institution appeals the policy. However, should the quality of the educational program of the institution attended appear to be mediocre or unsatisfactory, the Director of Admissions has the prerogative not to accept all or any part of previously earned credits.
The amount of academic credit accepted in transfer may not exceed the normal amount of credit that could have been earned at Georgia Southern University during that time.
All degree requirements for a transferable academic associate's degree must be completed at a transferable regionally-accredited institution. Georgia Southern will not accept credit in transfer from any non-accredited college.
Credit will be allowed for completed college courses which are parallel in nature. Below college level (remedial or learning support) courses cannot be accepted in transfer.
The Academic Unit responsible for the course will make judgments concerning satisfying requirements for areas A1-E of the Core Curriculum.
Transfer students who have a transferable academic associate’s degree are granted core curriculum credit as follows:
A University System transfer will get credit for completion of core areas A1-F, health and kinesiology, provided they have not changed their intended major from the transferring school. If they change majors, they will have to complete area F at Georgia Southern University (Academic Affairs Handbook, University System of Georgia, 2.04.04).
Non-system transfers who have completed a program with 60 credit hours or more will be given credit for core areas A1-E, health and kinesiology (46 credit hours). Area F courses will be evaluated by the major advisor for use in the student’s program of study.
Credits accepted in transfer by Georgia Southern University may not necessarily apply as credit hours toward graduation. Final determination, with exception of areas A1-E of the core curriculum, will be made by the appropriate academic advisor and are subject to the regulations of the school and department granting the degree and major.
Transfers who have earned 30 or more credit hours are exempt from First-Year Seminar (FYE 1220). Transfer students with fewer than 30 credit hours may seek a waiver of the First-Year Seminar (FYE 1220) requirement through their academic advisors if they meet either of the following criteria:
they earned credit hours for a two or three hour FYE course at a previous institution that has similar learning outcomes to First-Year Seminar (FYE 1220).
A maximum of 30 credit hours of correspondence (including Advanced Placement, AICE CLEP, DANTES, Military Credit, Extension, etc.) or a maximum of 24 credit hours of International Baccalaureate credits may be accepted for transfer within the following guidelines:
Fourteen credit hours including up to four credit hours for physical education activity courses may be awarded for correspondence courses as recommended by the American Council on Education (A.C.E.).
Two credit hours will be allowed for Physical Conditioning and Marksmanship for active service less than one year and four credit hours for physical education activity courses may be allowed for one year or more active service.
Military experience credit should be appropriate to the degree programs offered at Georgia Southern University.
Any credit hour awarded for participation in the DANTES program will be awarded and administered in the same manner as CLEP.

"I started out to write a book called A Portrait of the Artist as a Housewife. I wanted to write a collection of stories, poems and vignettes about things like my toaster oven and my relationships with plumbers, mailmen and delivery people. But life dealt me a much more complicated story..."
Gilda Radner died on May 20, 1989, shortly before publication of her book It's Always Something. A month before her death, Gilda entered a Los Angeles recording studio to deliver what would be her final performance -- this remarkable audio autobiography, in which she reveals the inspirational story of her struggles with cancer...a private, personal battle in which the humor and humanity that has touched millions became her most powerful weapon.
Anne Perry has dazzled readers for decades with her gripping Victorian novels and has won new fans with her acclaimed World War I series. Perry's thrilling Christmas novels, recent additions to her unique repertoire, are set in the most joyous season of the year. In A Christmas Guest, Mariah Ellison, better known as the vinegar-tongued Grandmama from the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt series, makes a stunning appearance in a bracing story full of devious delight . . . and certain death. For Grandmama Ellison, Christmas is no reason to celebrate. And when her daughter and son-in-law plan a Christmas vacation to Paris sans hers truly, the cantankerous Grandmama is forced to stay elsewhere--and travels to the chilly, windswept Romney Marshes to spend the holiday with Charlotte Pitt's parents, Caroline and Joshua Fielding. Grandmama is immediately miserable. For starters, Christmas with the Fieldings is nothing like the cultured life to which she's accustomed, and the Romney Marshes are unbearably provincial. When Joshua's cousin Maude Barrington arrives, Grandmama is at her wit's end. Although Maude is well traveled and friendly, Grandmama thinks she's improper and strange. But when Maude is found lifeless in bed, Grandmama senses foul play and takes it upon herself to assume the role of amateur detective--uncovering not only the truth about Maude Barrington but some startling truths about herself as well. Enlivened with bold characters and vivid, witty writing, A Christmas Guest is yet another holiday novella with the perfect combination of mystery and murder mixed with a generous helping of yuletide cheer.

Though we talk about wanting to "age gracefully," the truth is that when it comes to getting older, we're programmed to dread an inevitable decline: in our health, our looks, our sexual relationships, even the pleasure we take in living life. But as Christiane Northrup, M.D., shows us in this profoundly empowering book, we have it in us to make growing older an entirely different experience, for both our bodies and our souls. In chapters that blend personal stories and practical exercises with the latest research on health and aging, Dr. Northrup lays out the principles of ageless living, from rejecting processed foods to releasing stuck emotions, from embracing our sensuality to connecting deeply with our Divine Source. Explaining that the state of our health is dictated far more by our beliefs than by our biology, she works to shift our perceptions about getting older and show us what we are entitled to expect from our later years-no matter what our culture tries to teach us to the contrary-including:
