Special Notes for Transfer Students

For students interested in transfer for the spring term (JanuaryMay 2012): If you were accepted to St. Norbert College’s Class of 2015 and chose a different school, you are still eligible to receive the first-year scholarship that you were awarded upon acceptance.

For students interested in transfer for the fall term (AugustDecember 2012): Please be aware that there is a Priority Registration Period for transfer students that is unique to those applying for transfer with a fall term start date. This registration period will take place from Tuesday, May 1 through Thursday, June 14, 2012. Those students who have declared their intention to enroll at St. Norbert may register for their fall term classes before the incoming Class of 2016. Though applications for transfer will still be accepted after this period, students may find that many courses will have been filled with limited availability in remaining courses.

Additional Notes on Transfer Credit

St. Norbert College maintains transfer credit guides for a variety of two- and four-year school schools across the country. The guides are not comprehensive and only list coursework that has previously transferred to St. Norbert College from these institutions. The Office of the Registrar is the final authority on what will transfer to St. Norbert. Unofficial reviews of college credit are available on a case-by-case basis.

St. Norbert College has a number of transfer credit policies. Credit for college-level work is granted in all areas that correspond to courses offered at St. Norbert as long as the student has earned at least a "C" for the course.

Readmission to St. Norbert College

Whenever a student withdraws from or stops attending St. Norbert College and then wishes to resume attending, they MUST apply for readmission. Applications for readmission, along with any required supporting documentation, must be submitted to the Office of Admission by the appropriate deadlines – August 1 for the fall semester and January 1 for the spring semester. Readmission is not guaranteed for any student and proper procedures must be followed before a student will be reconsidered. Official details for the readmission process can be found at the following web page:

READMISSION POLICIES & PROCEDURES - http://www.snc.edu/registrar/readmit.htm.

Non-Degree (Visiting) St. Norbert Students

Students who wish to take one or more courses through St. Norbert College without applying to pursue an SNC degree are considered to be “Non-Degree” students; this includes any students who are currently attending another college or university but wish to take a course at St. Norbert while remaining actively enrolled at the other institution. These students are frequently referred to as “visiting” students. 

Admission Process  

Non-degree students are required to complete a Non-Degree Registration Form and submit it to the Office of the Registrar in order to take a course through St. Norbert; no other admission requirements are generally needed unless a student wishes to enroll in 12 or more credits during a semester. If the course you wish to take has prerequisites, you must prove that you meet them by submitting an official transcript. Visiting students may want to determine probable course availability prior to submitting their course registration. Contact one of the following for assistance:

Non-Degree Status Defined 

If you attend St. Norbert College as a visiting student, you will be considered non-degree seeking; this is not the same as being admitted to a degree program at the college. Courses you take as a non-degree-seeking student will count toward your grade point average at St. Norbert College; however, there is no guarantee the courses you take as a non-degree student will count toward your degree should you be admitted to St. Norbert in the future. Non-degree students may earn up to 16 credits before they are required to apply for admission. All students planning to enroll full-time (12 or more credit hours), even non-degree students, are required to apply for admission.

***NOTE - Any students intending to enroll as “part-time degree-seeking MUST follow regular admission procedures by submitting a complete application for admission and all relevant transcripts.

Most non-degree students are not eligible for financial aid. The Office of Financial Aid maintains information on the costs to attend St. Norbert College for the current academic year.

Notes on Class Registration  

St. Norbert College provides academic advisement for non-degree students. Please contact the transfer student coordinator at 920-403-3969 or jim.stamatakos@snc.edu if you would like to take advantage of this service.

Students can search course offerings online through the Timetable of Classes. The St. Norbert registrar’s office will register non-degree students in their requested courses beginning on the first day of open registration using the information provided on the Non-Degree Registration Form; if a course is unavailable, students will be notified to make adjustments. Some courses at St. Norbert College have various prerequisites, including only being available to students in a specific program, so availability of classes is not guaranteed.

If you plan to transfer your course to your current institution, please consult with that school's registrar about course transferability. The Office of the Registrar can provide you with an official transcript.

Second Bachelor's Degree

A student who has already received one bachelor's degree, either from St. Norbert College or from another college or university, may still receive a second bachelor's degree at St. Norbert College. These students will be subject to all basic transfer student degree requirements; including residency and transfer credit limits, even if their first degree is from St. Norbert. For more specific information on transfer policies, including degree residency requirements, please visit the following web page:

TRANSFER STUDENT POLICIES & PROCEDURES - http://www.snc.edu/registrar/transfer/Transfer_Policies.htm

Teacher Certification

Students who have earned a bachelor’s degree in an area other than education and wish to obtain teaching certification, are encouraged to contact Dr. Robert Osgood, chair of teacher education, to discuss their specific situations before proceeding with application to St. Norbert College.
