Appeal of credit transfer

Students or institutions wishing to challenge a Bowling Green State University transfer of credit decision may submit a written appeal to the Office of Registration and Records, which will determine whether a policy is at issue. If a policy is at issue, the Office of Registration and Records will perform the appropriate research and send the appeal to the Undergraduate Council. The Undergraduate Council will review all available information and make a recommendation to the Office of Academic Affairs. The Office of Academic Affairs will give final approval or disapproval of the Undergraduate Council's recommendation.

Appeals process for credit transfer

A multi-level, broad-based appeals process is required to be in place at each institution. A student disagreeing with the application of transfer credit by the receiving institution shall be informed of the right to appeal the decision and the process for filing the appeal. Each institution shall make available to students the appeal process for that specific college or university.

If a transfer student's appeal is denied by the institution after all appeal levels within the institution have been exhausted, the institution shall advise the student in writing of the availability and process of appeal to the state level Articulation and Transfer Appeals Review Committee.

The Appeals Review Committee shall review and recommend to institutions the resolution of individual cases of appeal from transfer students who have exhausted all local appeal mechanisms concerning applicability of transfer credits at receiving institutions.
