Study Abroad Course Approval Process

A John Carroll University student studying abroad will NOT be eligible for transfer credit from courses taken abroad UNLESS courses are pre-approved BEFORE going on study abroad.

Every John Carroll student who wishes to take courses at another institution will ordinarily first consult with their Advisor.  If you are planning to study abroad, you are required to meet with your Advisor to discuss your academic options.  Students must obtain written permission of the appropriate Dean
before enrolling at another university.
