School of Record Credit Sources

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.
