1.
UNCONDITIONAL ENROLLMENT
into the credit transfer programs or credit career
programs. Certain specialized programs have additional admissions requirements
and admission to the College does not imply acceptance to these programs. Within
the classification of unconditional enrollment, a student will be further classified as
freshman, sophomore, joint enrollment, transient, irregular, or audit.
2.
CONDITIONAL ENROLLMENT
into Learning Support. Those students whose
COMPASS test scores or comparable College Placement Examination scores
indicate an academic deficiency in one or more of the areas tested are granted
conditional acceptance and are required to remove all deficiencies prior to being
admitted unconditionally. Scores below 74 in reading, below 60 in English and below
37 in algebra on the COMPASS test will require one or more Learning Support
courses in a given deficiency area. The University System of Georgia has mandated
that students who place in all 3 areas of learning support are no longer eligible for
admission. Students requiring remediation must enroll in these courses first each
semester before enrolling in any credit work. Students needing to satisfy CPC math
requirements are required to do so by satisfactory completion of Learning Support
math.
3.
PROVISIONAL ENROLLMENT
is granted to those students whose program of study
requires the College Preparatory Curriculum and who are deficient in one or more
areas of this curriculum. All deficiencies must be removed by the time the student
earns 18 semester credit hours. Courses taken to meet deficiency requirements will
not count toward the student's degree requirements and must be completed within
the first 18 hours of college work. Science deficiencies may be removed by
completing either BIOL 1110 or CHEM 1151; social science deficiencies may be
removed by completing one of the following: HIST 1111 or 1112, HIST 2111, or HIST
2112; foreign language deficiencies may be removed by completing FREN 1001,
SPAN 1001, or JAPN 1001. Grades of “C” or better are required to satisfy the
deficiencies.
4.
TEMPORARY ENROLLMENT
is granted to an applicant who cannot submit all
admissions material prior to the printed deadlines. Such acceptance will permit the
student enrollment pending receipt of the missing information. No credits may be
recorded or grades released to students attending under this category until the
student’s admission file is complete.
E. TRANSFER OF CREDIT FROM OTHER INSTITUTIONS
Darton State College will accept transfer credit from other regionally accredited colleges
and universities. A grade of “C” or better is required, and credit is issued for equivalent
courses in the student’s curriculum at Darton State College. In addition, a maximum of two
courses carrying grades of “D” may be transferred if they satisfy curricular requirements
and if the student's cumulative transfer average is at least 2.00 by the Darton State College
method of computation. No freshman English courses with grades less than “C” may be
transferred.
A maximum of 42 semester hours of academic work may be transferred to Darton State
College for students applying for an Associates Degree. For those students applying for a
Bachelor’s degree, a maximum of 91 semester hours of academic work may be transferred
to Darton State College. A limited number of credits earned by correspondence may be
transferred if they carry satisfactory grades and meet curricular requirements.
For new students, an evaluation of credits accepted in transfer will be furnished to the
students as soon as all transcripts are received by the College. Currently enrolled students
and readmitted students are encouraged to access their their unofficial Darton State
College transcript via MyDC for updated transfer credits.
