1 Transfer FAQ: Accepted Students

TRANSFER REVIEW

What courses are eligible for transfer into SVA? • Credit is awarded as the courses you've taken align with the curriculum for your chosen SVA major. • Courses must be taken at the undergraduate level at a regionally accredited institution. • Courses are eligible for transfer with grades of C or higher. • Online, foreign language, ESL, music, performance, physical education, and business courses are not eligible for transfer.

How was my transfer placement determined? • The transfer of credit and level of placement is determined on an individual, case-by-case basis with special attention given to your portfolio, specific classes you have taken, your grades, your choice of Fall or Spring entry, and the Department Chair's approval. • Placement is primarily dependent on studio coursework and portfolio, not necessarily on the total number of credits previously earned. • Due to the studio-based nature of our curriculum, it is not uncommon that applicants who have completed significant coursework in only the liberal arts get placed in the first-year program of their department.

What courses have I been exempted from taking at SVA? • Your transfer credits and placement with SVA can be found under Your Enrollment Steps in the applicant portal, located under "Resources" on the right. Please note that courses awarded as elective credit are not listed as exemptions.

Does SVA accept AP, IB, CAPE or A-Level results for credit? • AP exam results should be submitted to Academic Advisement for evaluation. Any exemptions will be noted by your Academic Advisor upon course registration. Contact [email protected] for more information. • Students who earn scores of 5, 6 or 7 on the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma, higher-level (HL) examinations in certain subjects may be awarded humanities exemptions by Admissions. Contact Asha Sheshadri at [email protected] for more information on specific exams. • For GCE A-Level exams with grades of C or higher and CAPE exams with grades of 1, 2 or 3, credit may be awarded. All students must submit an ocial course-by-course evaluation to Admissions from ECE or WES.

RE-EVALUATION

I have additional coursework in-progress at my current school. Will these credits transfer to SVA? • Upon the receipt of an updated ocial college transcript, Admissions will re-evaluate your file for additional transfer credit. If any updates are made to your exemptions, you will be notified via email. Please note, “ocial” means that transcripts must be sent directly to SVA from the issuing institution. • Admissions will re-evaluate credits through the end of the course adjustment period of your first semester at SVA (typically mid September for students entering in the Fall term).

I didn’t get credit for a course I thought would transfer in. Can my credits be re-evaluated? • Please submit any questions about your credit to the Manager of Transfer Admissions, Asha Sheshadri, at [email protected]. Please include course descriptions for the credits in . It is important to keep in mind that credits are awarded only as they align with the curriculum of your intended major. Re-evaluation does not guarantee that additional credit or updated placement will be granted.

I’m considering enrolling in additional courses this summer to attending SVA. What should I take? • Typically, Humanities and Art History courses are good options to consider for additional credit. • The transferability of an additional course depends on credits that have already been approved for transfer into SVA along with the curriculum of your intended major. You may review the requirements for your intended SVA major at sva.edu/regbook. • You are welcome to submit a description for any courses you may consider taking to Admissions for a recommendation. Please keep in mind that additional credit may only be awarded upon the submission of an updated transcript listing grades and credits earned.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What qualifes as a disability under the ADA? “The ADA defnes a person with a disability as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activity. This includes people who have a record of such an impairment, even if they do not currently have a disability. It also includes individuals who do not have a disability but are regarded as having a disability. The ADA also makes it unlawful to discriminate against a person based on that person’s association with a person with a disability.”

What type of documentation do I need to provide? Documentation should be from a licensed treatment provider and should include: 1. A diagnosis of the disability or disabilities a. a) Including elaboration on the treatment, medications, assistive devices, and services prescribed or suggested 2. A list of the functional limitations that he student will experience in an academic environment as a result of the documented disability a) Including a description of the impact of the disability overtime (i.e. Is the impact permanent or temporary?) 3. Suggested reasonable accommodations related to the disability 4. Documentation must be signed by the treatment provider and include their licensing number and credentials. *Documentation must be in English or ofcially translated and stamped by a translation service.

What happens once I submit an accommodation request and provide documentation of my disability?

What accommodations does your ofce not provide? We do not provide accommodations that would fundamentally alter course requirements or grading standards or create an advantage for the student with a disability (ex. blanket extensions on assignments- assignment deadlines are provided in the syllabus at the beginning of the term, diferent grading standards).

Students will need to obtain a specifc form to have their licensed treatment providers complete. This form can be obtained by emailing [email protected]. Animals that may carry zoonotic diseases are not allowed. Additionally, New York City ordinances do not allow certain types of animals to be kept as pets or emotional support animals.
