·  This form documents the preliminary approval of the transfer course(s) identified below, taken at an international institution, for general education credit in the Linfield Curriculum, credit in a major or minor, or elective credit. Final approval requires submission of catalog copy from the provider institution describing the course(s) in question and/or a syllabus from each course (in some cases both may be requested before pre-approval or final approval is considered). NOTE: Transfer courses must have a grade of C or above.

·  When approval for a course for general education (the Linfield Curriculum or ‘LC’) or elective credit is requested, the Registrar (Melrose 012) may review the supporting materials.

·  When approval for a major or minor course is requested, only the chairperson of the appropriate department may approve.

·  Please note that the recommendations recorded below are NOT A GUARANTEE that a course will meet Linfield requirements; rather, it represents the best judgment of the reviewer before the course is completed, especially in the absence of such supporting materials as syllabi, book lists, assignments, etc. The student must submit this supporting documentation to the appropriate reviewer before final approval occurs.
