Information for Transfer Students:
There are two sets of requirements
for graduation: Major Requirements and General Education
Requirements. Transfer students with a psychology
major entering in Fall 2001 or after must follow the
GEC-CAR General Education Requirements.
1. GEC-CAR requirements for PSY
majors are listed in the UNCG Undergraduate Bulletin. You can also perform a "degree audit" on yourself at any time using the UNCGenie system. If you need help creating a degree audit, you should visit the department and the administrative assistant, Ms. Laura Horsley, can assist you in getting a faculty advisor. Her office is 296 Eberhart.
2. One restriction for PSY majors:
PSY majors who have not placed out of the math requirement
must take one of three courses to satisfy the GMT
(math) requirement. They are: MAT 115, MAT 150, or
STA 108.
New PSY major requirements: Fall
entrants are required to take 35 credit hours in psychology,
including PSY 121, PSY 310 or MAT 271 (statistics),
and PSY 311 (Research Methods, with lab).
Recommendation: *****complete PSY
310 and 311 by the end of your junior year****
* Transferring
Psychology Courses to UNCG:
1. On admission to UNCG, you will
receive a Transfer Equivalency Worksheet indicating
how UNCG has evaluated all courses for which you received
credit at another university or college.
2. Each course's Institutional Equivalent
at UNCG will be indicated by a UNCG prefix (e.g. PSY)
a number (e.g. 300), and an amount of credit (e.g.
3.00).
3. If the course's equivalent UNCG
number is "000", but credit is indicated, that means
we have no such course at UNCG, but you have received
credit for an elective course. It counts toward the
required number of hours for graduation, but does
not meet a requirement.
4. Match up numbers of the transferred
courses with the course numbers of your major and
CLER / AULER requirements (see the University Bulletin).
If it matches, you've met the requirement.
5. If you think you should have
gotten credit for a course that you need, but didn't
receive the credit. pick up a transfer credit request
form in the Department of Psychology, Eberhart 296.
Fill out the form. Provide information about the course,
and leave it with Laura Horsely (room 296, Eberhart
Building). We will evaluate its similarity for our
major and send our recommendation to Student Academic
Services.
NOTE:
We cannot evaluate credit for courses to be
used to meet AULER CLER requirements, unless they
are psychology courses. See Student Academic Services
to request a special assessment of those courses.
If you have questions about
Transfer Credit, please send e-mail to the director of undergraduate studies.
