Rule 3361:50-1-04 | Colleges and divisions: policies on student transfers within the University of Cincinnati.
In order to facilitate the transfer of students among the various programs and colleges of the university of Cincinnati, the following policies shall apply: (A) The associate transfer degree (associate of arts and associate of science) is recognized as the degree designed to facilitate the transfer of students among the various colleges of the university. Students' transferring without the associate transfer degree or with an unarticulated associate technical degree will be evaluated on a course-by-course basis as to the equivalences of course work completed. (B) All transferring students must meet the admissions requirements of the college to which they are transferring; likewise, they must meet the graduation requirements of the college from which they take their baccalaureate degrees. Associate transfer degree students shall be subject to the same academic standards as students who have matriculated in the baccalaureate colleges as freshmen. (C) Each college shall have the responsibility to maintain current transfer agreements as appropriate with other colleges of the university. These agreements shall stipulate appropriate course-by-course and program-level equivalences. Changes in course-by-course or program equivalences shall be approved and published one academic year in advance of their implementation. Current course syllabi and supporting materials shall be available to facilitate the articulation of courses. (D) Each college shall appoint a transfer liaison responsible for coordinating transfer agreements and course equivalences. Centralized records of transfer agreements and course equivalences shall be maintained by the university. (E) Transfer agreements and the course equivalences shall be published and made available upon request to all university students. Students entering the university with the expressed intention of earning an associate transfer degree shall be provided this information upon admission. (F) In recognition of the associate transfer degree, students who transfer with this degree and who meet the admission requirements of the receiving baccalaureate college shall be awarded junior level university status. Students transferring with associate technical degrees shall be extended the same university status as those holding associate transfer degrees if an articulation agreement exists between the associate technical program and the appropriate baccalaureate program.

(C) Undergraduate students are subject to the university academic standing policy following the attempt of thirty or more university of Cincinnati credit hours.

(3) Each college may establish a university cumulative grade point average greater than two and zero tenths for admission to, or continuation within, its specific degree programs. A student's continuance at the university in academic good standing, however, is contingent upon maintaining a university cumulative grade point average of two and zero tenths or greater; (4) Each college may establish policies and procedures for the probation, suspension, and dismissal from its academic degree programs for a failure to meet each program's minimum university cumulative grade point average, or for a failure to meet other criteria established and monitored by the college.

(4) For a student on university academic probation following academic suspension who achieves a university cumulative grade point average of two and zero tenths or greater, the university will set the student's status to university academic good standing; (5) For a student on university academic probation following university academic suspension who fails to earn a university term grade point average of two and zero tenths or greater, the university will set the student's university academic status to university academic dismissal; (6) Once the student on university academic probation following university academic suspension reaches a university cumulative grade point average of two and zero tenths or greater, the university will academically dismiss the student at the end of any academic term wherein the student's university cumulative grade point average drops below two and zero tenths (i.e., there will not be a third probationary period); (7) Upon university academic dismissal, the university will block a student from per-term enrollment in all university classes, for all colleges and campuses.

(4) As preconditions for immediate or early reinstatement from university academic suspension, readmission following university suspension, or reinstatement following university academic dismissal, the university suspension, dismissal, and readmissions appeals committee is empowered to establish the following criteria: (a) University college endorsement requirements, whereby a university college accepts a student into an academic program offered by that college and provides the university suspension, dismissal, and readmissions appeals committee with an academic success plan for that student; (b) University specific-course enrollment and/or course performance requirements; (c) Per-term enrollment limitations; and/or (d) Other requirements as determined appropriate.
