FS Transfer Assurance Guidelines
For consideration at the FS meeting on 9/13/05.
Faculty Senate Resolution
The Faculty Senate hereby endorses the principle, as required by Ohio law, of treating
the grades of all transfer and continuing (“native”)
University of Toledo students equally, including cases of transfer students with grades
lower than C. Programs and majors that accept grades
lower than C for continuing UT students must also accept such grades for transfer
students, beginning with courses completed in fall, 2005.
Clarification/background:
Inpassing this resolution, the Faculty Senate is reversing its advice, approved by voice vote at its meeting on Oct. 19, 2004, to the Ohio Articulation and Transfer Council (through then-vice provost Bill Bischoff), to deny credit for any transfer grade lower than a C.
All departments and programs remain entitled to set their own academic standards, subject to the approval of the appropriate governing bodies, such as the Faculty Senate and Graduate Council
