TRANSFER CREDIT TO CLEVELAND COMMUNITY COLLEGE
Cleveland Community College permits admission with transfer credit for students from accredited Colleges and Universities. Students must have official transcripts sent to Cleveland for evaluation. Courses accepted for transfer credit must closely parallel those for which credit is sought at the College. Grades and quality points do not transfer. Credit is given to approved courses in which a "C" or better was made. For program completion in associate degree, diploma and certificate programs, at least 25% of the required hours for graduation must be earned at Cleveland.
PROCEDURE TO WITHDRAW FROM A COURSE(S)
Students desiring to withdraw from a course(s) after the 10% point of the course(s) should complete the official Withdrawal Form. This form is also available in Student Services. Withdrawal with a grade of “W” will be allowed after the 10% point of the course and before the 75% point of the standard or nonstandard term. A standard term is sixteen weeks. A course(s) which was officially withdrawn from will show on a student’s transcript as a grade of “W.”
COURSE AUDITS
A student may elect to audit a course or courses by completing the official Audit Form. This form is also available in Student Services. Those auditing receive no credit and do not have to take any examinations; otherwise, participation in class is on the same basis as a credit student. An audit does not meet course co/pre‑requisite requirements. The fee for auditing is the same as the fee for credit. By completing the appropriate form in Student Services and notifying the appropriate instructor, a student may change a course classification from credit to audit until the 75% point of the term in which he/she is enrolled in the course. Students may change from audit to credit classification for an enrolled course during the Add Period only. The Add Period is posted in Student Services each term.
