The grade at the host institution is automatically conveyed to the registrar at the home institution through the Language Exchange (instructors are not required to complete extra steps for 'Language Exchange' grades). The registrar will transfer it to the student's record in Banner or PeopleSoft following their policies.
Note:
- As a rule, grades do not normally transfer. Language Exchange grades move to the student's home institution transcript as transfer credit.
- Grades are handled following the current transfer credit rules of the student's home institution.
- In order to transfer, most institutions require that students attain a minimum grade of C (2.00) in the course.
- Students should contact their home institution registrar if they have questions about equivalencies, transfer credit rules and where/how transfer credit is listed on their transcript.
- The UNC Online/Language Exchange Memorandum of Understanding outlines the following guidelines:
- 1. The home institution shall capture the credits toward the student's degree, and shall
maintain the student’s primary transcript.
2. UNCO shall automatically convey the grade awarded by the host institution to the
registrar at the home institution.
3. The registrar at the home institution shall transfer and translate the grades from the host
institution. Grade transfers should be handled through the UNCO interface.
4. The home institution shall determine the type of credit to be awarded for UNCO course
completion. The type of credit may vary for collaborative and exchange alliance courses.
5. The home institution is responsible for providing its students with access to
advisors/registrars who can evaluate course equivalencies and their validity for a students
degree program.
6. If the course is not one that furthers the completion of the student’s degree, the home
institution may choose not to accept the transfer of credit from the host institution. It is
not UNCO’s responsibility to ensure that courses taken by a student furthers the
completion of the student’s degree.
