Ireland Study Abroad Exams and Grading

There will be a separate written examination for each course.  The primary instructor will grade it as pass/fail (unless your school requires an alphanumeric grade).  UMKC is the credit granting institution and retains sole authority to evaluate student performance for Ireland Program ABA-approved credit.

Students may obtain an additional 0.5 hours Independent Study credit at no additional charge by submitting a paper to the Academic Director no later than July 31, 2008.  Specific paper requirements may be obtained for the Director.  Please indicate whether or not you will participate in the optional additional credit in the appropriate box on the registration form to ensure proper credit enrollment.

Credit Transfers

This program is ABA-approved for 5.5 credit hours academic credit.   UMKC will provide supporting documents, but ultimately the decision to accept transfer credits and grades is the responsibility of each academic institution.  Further, oversees study programs may not meet your school's residency or accelerated graduation requirements.  Accordingly, you are advised to confer with your registrar prior to application

Students may obtain an additional 0.5 credit hours Independent Study academic credit  (for a total of 6.0 academic credit hours) as described immediately above.
