IMPORTANT: Before you study abroad, confirm with your academic advisor how the classes abroad will transfer back for you to Iowa State.
- Transcripts from international institutions are sent to the CALS 草榴社区 office if the student was on a CALS program; or to the 草榴社区 Center in 281 Parks Library if they were on a non-CALS program.
- The CALS 草榴社区 office sends a certified copy of the original transcript to the Registrar鈥檚 office and your academic advisor (or in some cases, the leadership in your college/the college where you will earn your credit through) will determine how the credits transfer back. In some cases, the course will come in as a specific ISU course (e.g., HIST 201); in other cases, the course will come in as a more generic course (e.g., HIST 2T**).
- This course information is sent to the student in Workday. The student must alert their academic advisor that they have received their transcript otherwise their academic advisor will not know.
- The advisor will then review these courses to see how they might be used in the student鈥檚 degree program.
- Students are highly encouraged to save all their coursework and syllabi while they are abroad in case these materials are needed to secure the required approvals.
- The student picks up their original transcript from their host university in 0018 Curtiss Hall if they were on a CALS program; if they were on a 草榴社区 Center program, they need to go to 281 Parks Library to pick up their original transcript.
