Registration

1. Go to the Wellesley Registrar's Office and pick up a Cross Registration Form and an Application for Transfer and Summer School Credit for each class you plan to take at Babson.

2. Obtain an approval signature from the Wellesley Registrar's Office on the Cross Registration Form. Submit also the Application for Transfer and Summer School Credit, following the directions printed on that form.

3. Go to Babson's undergraduate office to get approval to take the course(s) you want . Obtain an approval signature on the Cross Registration Form and leave the yellow copy at Babson.

4. Return the signed original form to the Wellesley Registrar's Office, along with your add/dropp card.


NOTE: All Babson courses must be approved individually for transfer credit and for the major by the relevant Wellesley department, and approval forms must be filed with the Wellesley Registrar, as indicated above. Credit, but no grade, will appear on your Wellesley transcript, and the course will not be figured into your GPA.

Although most Babson courses are worth 4 credits, which is equivalent to a Wellesley unit, some are not. This information is noted in Babson's Undergraduate Registration Guide. A course which is fewer than four units will transfer proportionately to your Wellesley transcript, e.g. a three credit course is worth .75 Wellesley units.
