Resources for Department Heads
When students decide to participate in an Education Abroad program, they will be prompted
to submit a credit preapproval request from the Transfer Credit Reevaluations and Approvals portal. This request is sent
directly to the corresponding department head for approval. The Office of Education
Abroad requires students to secure prepprovals for all credits they plan on receiving
from their study abroad program. Without those preapproval requests, all credits received
from their host university will transfer as GEN 000. We ask that department heads
carefully consider students' approval requests to ensure that their credits transfer
back fairly and accurately, according to Missouri State's catalogue. When in doubt,
please reach out. If you are a department head and received an Education Abroad preapproval
request that seems odd to you, feel free to contact the Education Abroad Advisor,
Amy Huff, who works with students on transfer credit preapproval requests.
