Transfer Requirements

College Transcripts

As a college transfer student, you are required to provide official transcripts from any institution you previously attended prior to enrollment. This includes institutions in which you only attempted credit hours, but may have withdrawn from or failed courses. Please contact each institution you have taken courses with to request the official transcripts.

If you are currently enrolled at another institution, official "in-progress" transcripts will be accepted for the purpose of enrollment. However, a final and official transcript is required, once your courses are completed and graded, by the first day of the term of enrollment.  

Students may not omit any part of their previous college records, whether part-time or full-time, with or without degree objectives, whether or not credit has been granted, or whether or not they desire to transfer credit. Chadron State reserves the right to use the National Student Clearinghouse and/or the National Student Loan Data System to verify that students have accurately disclosed their academic history.

Transfer students must meet CSC's Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Standards prior to receiving financial aid with CSC. The school in which the student last attempted credit hours will be reviewed to determine financial aid status prior to being awarded financial aid with CSC. In addition, for maximum timeframe allowed to earn a degree, CSC includes all attempted credit hours undergraduate or graduate (depending on current pursued degree) reflected on all academic transcripts from all previously attended institutions.

Post-Baccalaureate Requirements

Pursuing a second bachelor’s degree (Post-Baccalaureate)

A second bachelor’s degree applicant is a student who has obtained a bachelor’s degree from a U.S. accredited institution or its evaluated equivalent from an approved evaluator for international degrees, and who is seeking to apply for a second bachelor’s degree.

Requirements

Students pursuing a second bachelor’s degree must complete the following requirements:

  • meet all admissions requirements for that degree
  • submit official transcripts for review, prior to starting classes
  • earn a minimum of 30 credit hours successfully from Chadron State College beyond the first bachelor’s degree
  • must have a declared major different from the major that has already been earned for the first bachelor’s degree
  • must select one of the following: 1) a comprehensive major or 2) a subject major and a minor in a different academic area than the subject major
  • meet with an academic advisor for an evaluation of courses needed to obtain the second degree, and not deviate from the established academic plan
  • transcript evaluation, SAP calculation, and an official advising session must be completed prior to starting courses

The general education/essential studies course requirements will be waived for the second bachelor’s degree.

Financial Aid Considerations

Second bachelor’s degree seeking students with an undecided major are considered undeclared for financial aid purposes and are not eligible for aid.

Generally, second bachelor’s degree seeking undergraduate students may be eligible for Federal Work Study, Federal Stafford Loans, or private loans.

Typically, second bachelor’s degree seeking students are not eligible to receive grants such as Pell, FSEOG, or institutional grants and scholarships.

Second bachelor’s degree seeking students are reviewed as undergraduate students for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy purposes.  Therefore, they must maintain SAP to remain eligible for federal financial aid.  Attempted hours, including those hours attempted for previous undergraduate degree(s) will be used in the calculation.

 

 

Academic Standards

Second bachelor’s degree seeking students are subject to CSC’s Academic Good Standing, Probation and Suspension policies.

Students are not eligible for academic honors upon completion of the post baccalaureate degree.

Added Endorsements

Students interested in pursuing an additional certification or endorsement in Education (Post-Baccalaureate Teaching Certification), please contact our Certification Officer, Dave Perkins, for a credit evaluation and more information at 308-432-6032 or dperkins@csc.edu.  A minimum grade point average of 2.75 is required in added endorsement coursework.
