TRANSIENT ADMISSIONS

The transient student must complete the following: Submit an application for admission to the host institution. Present a Transient Agreement Letter from the Registrar or Academic Dean of the home institution indicating that the student is in good standing and eligible to return to that institution. NOTE: The 25 hour credit maximum may be waived for the student upon the recommendation of the home institution. Pay scheduled fees for the host institution. Eligible program admitted students at Augusta Technical College desiring to take a course from another institution must have prior approval from the Registrar.
