TRANSFER CREDIT PROCESSING (Including Advanced Placement & Credit by Examination)
Students who have transferred into Andrews University from another college or university will have their transfer credit evaluated by our Articulation Office. This credit must be articulated in order to determine what transfer credit has an Andrews credit equivalent and can count toward the student's degree progress. If you have questions regarding degree progress after transferring, please consult your academic advisor and the Andrews University Bulletin to see degree requirements. For transfer credit questions, advanced placement or credit by examination questions, processes or troubleshooting, please email articulation@andrews.edu, call 269-471-3979 or make an appointment with our Operations Specialist. For questions regarding academic petitions for transfer credit, students must consult with their academic dean's office.
Degree Audit
Students may process a degree audit by accessing their Vault account and following the links to "Degree Audit." Academic Records will run a degree audit for students for advisors when the student reaches junior status in order to track their progress. A degree audit will also be processed when the student is a senior and to ensure the completion of degree requirements before graduation. Students are responsible for understanding and fulfilling degree requirements.
Enrollment & Degree Verifications
Enrollment and Degree Verifications are available through the Operations Specialist of Academic Records. Our office hours are 9 AM to 5 PM Monday through Thursday and 9 AM to noon on Fridays.
Grades
Course grades are available one week after graduation ceremonies through your Vault account. Please refer questions regarding your grades or about changing your grade to your course professors--we do not initiate this process. If you need to order transcripts and would like grades from recent classes to appear on your transcripts, please take into account the timing of grade submission and wait until grades are posted. If you have a DG or Incomplete and need your grade to be changed, please speak with your professor. Professors are responsiblie for submitting final grades to Transcripts & Diploma Services in Academic Records.
Incompletes
In the event that students want to receive an incomplete for a course, they must speak to the professor of the course. The instructor will assign a timeline with a finish date for the student to complete the required work for a final grade. The student will see an I for incomplete on their grade summary/transcripts until, in the event the required work and deadlines are finished, the professor submits the final grade to Academic Records.
Independent Study
Undergraduate students who have permission by the instructor and would like to take an Independent Study must obtain an Instructor Approval for Independent Study Form from the front counter of Academic Records.
Late Registration Fees
Students are assigned open registration days on the academic calendar. Students who fail to register during this time (this refers to their initial registration for each semester, not changes made after initial registration) must pay a late registration fee of US $70. Students have the option of dropping, adding or making changes to their registration with an Add/Drop form by certain deadlines within each semester. Students who submit an Add/Drop form beyond the deadline for registration changes will incur a fee of US $30 per day. Please refer to the Academic Calendar for dates regarding upcoming fee deadlines (Bulletin page 28).

Michigan Guest Application
If you would like to take a class at another Michigan college or university, please obtain a Michigan Uniform Undergraduate Guest Application from Articulation in Office 204 in Academic Records. Students who would like to be a guest at a university outside of Michigan should obtain a Transient Student Request from Articulation.
Petitions
Students must visit their academic dean to obtain a graduate or undergraduate petition form. A student would obtain a petition form to take a course for their degree requirements in the following circumstances:
waivers
substitutions
credit by exam
change of programs
to petition acceptance of transfer credit to replace certain AU credit requirements
a replacement course for a course that is no longer offered
to take a course which had the name or number changed
to take a course that has similar course content
to seek permission to take a course
to take a replacement course for a course not offered in the student's senior year.
