Policies Regarding General Chemistry Courses Taken at
Other Institutions for Wesleyan Credit
As Prerequisites for Organic Chemistry:
1) General chemistry courses taken at other institutions
will usually satisfy the prerequisites for Organic Chemistry (Chemistry 251)
at Wesleyan. Prerequisite override requests and related questions should be
directed to the instructor of Chemistry 251.
For Transfer of Credit:
2) The instructor of the equivalent Wesleyan course
(Chemistry 141 or 142) for the current academic year must approve all transfer
of credit requests. Such approvals are solely at his/her discretion.
3) Permission should be requested before the course is
taken. The student should submit:
a) the "Permission to Transfer Credit From
Another College or University" form available on the Dean's Office website (http://www.wesleyan.edu/deans/ptc.pdf),
b) the syllabus for the course including the name and author (and edition, if
relevant) of the text and the outline of the topical coverage of the course,
c) the total number of class hours involved and d) the name and contact
information for the course instructor.
4) The other institution must offer a chemistry major
and the course must be a gateway course to the major.
5) For community colleges and other two-year
institutions a grade of B+ or better is required for transfer credit.
6) Courses taken elsewhere may not be counted toward a
chemistry major at Wesleyan (except by special petition to the Curriculum
Committee of the Chemistry Department).
