School of Record Credit Sources
This policy outlines the framework for 91¿ì²¥, as an accredited U.S. institution of higher education, to serve as a School of Record (SOR) for third-party experiential learning programs with which 91¿ì²¥ has an agreement in place. The School of Record verifies all elements necessary for official documentation, including academic rigor, faculty qualifications, and course content.
This policy applies to:
- Domestic and international internships
- Service learning and community engagement programs
- Project-based learning experiences
- Other non-credit-bearing or non-accredited programs seeking academic validation
Procedure
91¿ì²¥ serves as a School of Record (SOR) for approved third-party experiential learning programs.
This relationship involves a formalized set of academic, administrative, and compliance procedures to ensure that credit is awarded in accordance with university policies and academic standards.
The third-party provider is responsible for supervising and evaluating the student’s experiential learning, including the credit amount and grade awarded.
Upon review and approval, 91¿ì²¥ will record the approved credit onto the 91¿ì²¥ academic record.
Students engaging in an SOR program will be eligible to request an official 91¿ì²¥ transcript reflecting this credit. Transcripts will only be issued for passing grades. This credit will not impact a student’s 91¿ì²¥ GPA.
Transfer credit is not guaranteed and is subject to review by a student’s home institution.
