Atlanta Metropolitan College students who wish to take coursework at another institution for academic credit may submit a Transient Student Request Form to the Office of the Registrar. Students submitting a Transient Student Request must meet the following conditions:
• The student must be good academic standing with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0.
• The student must have 18 earned hours of residency at Atlanta Metropolitan College.
• The student must be enrolled during the semester in which he or she applies for transient status.
• The course the student seeks to take is not offered during the term transient permission is requested.
• The student must complete a Transient Request Form and obtain approval from both the Division Chairperson and the Registrar.
• If the student is within the last 20 hours of graduation, the student must obtain written approval from the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Students with Learning Support requirements must obtain permission from the Chairperson of the Division of Learning Support.
Transient approval is only for one term. Subsequent terms require submitting a new transient form with the required signatures. Only grades of “C” or better will be accepted. Students granted transient permission must request that an official transcript of transient coursework be forwarded to the Office of the Registrar at Atlanta Metropolitan College. Coursework taken as a transient student is not calculated in the grade point average.
Procedures for completing the Transient Form:
- The student must complete the Transient Request Form, (available in the Office of the Registrar).
- The Transient Request Form must have the approval of both the Advisor and the Division Chairperson.
- Once you have obtained the appropriate signatures, you must return the form to the Office of the Registrar.
- The final approval process takes 1 to 2 business days, as your academic record will be reviewed.
- It is your responsibility to pick up your Official Transient Letter from the Office of the Registrar and provide this letter to the host institution.
- Students attending another institution are responsible for requesting an official transcript of transient coursework be forwarded to Atlanta Metropolitan College.
Please request that the transcript is mailed to:
Atlanta Metropolitan College
