Exchange Program with the Art Center College of Design
Full-time students at Occidental and Art Center may receive credit for courses taken at the other institution during the fall or spring semesters but not during the summer, with the permission of both institutions. The program is designed for art majors and is not open to first-year students.
A student in this exchange program must obtain prior approval from the chair of the Department of Art History and the Visual Arts at Occidental, his or her advisor, the instructor of the course, and the Occidental and Art Center registrars. Students must be full-time at Occidental (a minimum of 12 units). Additional tuition payments are not required, but there may be special laboratory fees.
Occidental College will add the course on the current registration as a placeholder but will remove it upon completion of the course and add it as a transfer course.
At the completion of an exchange course, appropriate information is recorded on the student’s Occidental transcript as transfer credit.
