In an effort to provide equal time to all students, the Student Services Division of the School of Journalism and New Media enforces a no-show policy. This policy is not designed as punishment for students; rather it serves as a reminder to be respectful to the adviser’s time and your fellow students’ time. A no-show deprives another student of the opportunity to meet with their adviser. A no-show also takes time away from the adviser.
The UM School of Journalism and New Media requires students to receive prior approval to earn credit for all courses taken at another institution. Written permission must be granted by the dean’s office prior to enrolling in courses to be transferred. Unapproved transfer courses will not be accepted.
*UM transfer credit will not be granted for any courses taken at another institution while concurrently enrolled at UM.
If the course you would like to transfer is not in the transfer equivalency database in myOleMiss, please provide a copy of the course description and/or syllabus. Please note: Mississippi community college courses are listed in the transfer equivalency database.
The form will be processed as quickly as possible from the time it is received in the Dean’s Office. Additional time for processing must be allowed if the form is turned in at the end of a semester or summer term.
