Transferring credits

I was not aware how specific the policy is on credit transfers. Institutions have made it very difficult to move from one institution to another

Stay Up to Date

I will review the laws to make sure there were no changes and I will keep an updated copy for myself and in my file cabinet.

Admissions paperwprk

I do. They will ask things about tuition or refund policies. I go over those things with them at the time they ask, as well as when we go over and sign the enrollment agreement. I actually feel it make the process easier when they ask questions.

Transferring Credits

Anyway know of a way to find out if there are any agreements between colleges and transferring credits?

Resource Book

I have a binder that includes updates and memos relating to my school, minutes from weekly meetings, and also different policies and proceedures. My school's catalog and employee handbook are also in my resource binder. I am always adding new things to my binder.

Credits

This is a topic that needs to be discussed with students so they understand.

Materials

Discounting

It is amazing how many families expect to have their tuition discounted if they pay in cash. Some schools actually did this.

Resource Book

This is a great tool and one that needs to be kept at the institution too.
