Visiting Student Program

Students at Shippensburg University have the option of taking courses at one of the thirteen other schools in Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education. Under the Visiting Student Program, courses you take will be recorded on your academic record at Shippensburg and the grades you receive will be included in your QPA calculation. This program is intended to allow you to take advantage of courses available across the State System, without loss of institutional residency, eligibility for honors or athletics, or credits toward graduation at the home institution.

To participate in the Visiting Student Program, undergraduate students must have completed at least 12 credits and be in good academic standing. Undergraduate students may take a maximum of 24 credits via the Visiting Student Policy.Graduate students must be accepted into a graduate program and be in good academic standing. Graduate students may take up to 12 credits via the Visiting Student Policy; this limitation does not apply to joint or shared programs.  Advance approval is required from your academic dean. This program may not be used to repeat grades earned at Shippensburg University.
