PARTICIPATION IN A VISITING STUDENT PROGRAM

Wellesley students who wish to spend a semester or a year at a campus in the U.S. which is NOT part of the 12 College Exchange should make plans through the Class Deans' Office rather than through the Exchange Office. Here are the steps to follow:

• Contact the college or university in which you are interested to see if it has a visiting student program and to request an application
  
  
• File a proposal to study away with your class dean and discuss your plans with her.
  Proposals for fall and full year are due mid-December (before you leave for winter break); proposals for spring study are due May 15 (before you leave for summer).
  
  
• File a leave of absence form with your Class Dean according to the following deadlines:
  For a fall or full year leave - April 15
  For a spring leave - December 1
  
  
• In order to receive transfer credit, you must fill out an Application for Transfer and Summer School Credit for each course you take. The forms.are available at the Registrar's Office. If you have questions about transferring credit, contact the Associate Registrar, Laura Bey.
