Albert Turner “passes it on”
Arthur O. Eve HEOP....................443-3261
Albert Turner ’13 attended Syracuse University as a fourth grader, but he
was over 60 when he graduated. As a bright child growing up in a Syracuse
housing project, Albert flourished in a summer math program at SU. But
when he left for college in 1969, he quickly lost interest. Forty years later,
Albert decided to finish what he’d started. He enrolled part time at UC, and
became the last of his mother’s five children to earn a college degree.
His mother and 104-year-old grandmother were in attendance. “They made
me realize that the way to achieve my dream was through education,” Albert
says, “And I achieved that dream for all three of us.”

June 2015
Studies at Syracuse University is published
four times yearly, in July, November, February,
and June, by Syracuse University, Syracuse,
New York. Periodicals postage paid at Syracuse,
New York. Postmaster: Send address corrections
to Studies at Syracuse University, UC Inquiries,
700 University Avenue, Syracuse, NY 13210.
Albert was chosen to be student speaker for the University College Class
of 2013. In his speech, he acknowledged his good fortune in attending SU.
“We have people in our lives who give us the opportunity to achieve something special,” Albert said. “So what do we do with it? We pass it on.”
Albert has been “passing it on” since retiring from Verizon after a 36-year
career. He volunteers so widely that the NAACP presented him with a Community Involvement Award last year. Through On Point for College, Albert
drives low income high school students all over the state to tour colleges,
and runs workshops to help them research scholarships and grants.
As a member of 100 Black Men of Syracuse, Albert does presentations
about equal opportunity programs. He supports the Syracuse Inner-City
Rotary’s Hoops for Peace program, and recently joined the board for Signature
Music, which provides instruments and music camp scholarships for kids.
Albert’s contributions reflect the philosophy he shared with his fellow
graduates two years ago. “As representatives of University College, we are
prepared to go forth and become the inspirational leaders of the communities we inhabit,” he said. “Let us share what we have to offer.”

We’re the home of part-time studies at Syracuse University, and we invite you to take part
in all we have to offer. You don’t have to be pursuing a degree or certificate to participate
in the many academic, cultural, and community offerings available at the University.
For 97 years, UC has been opening doors to those who
want to take a class or two, earn a degree, and participate
as active citizens in the vibrant Central New York community. Whether your goal is to advance your career or
continue the process of lifelong learning, we are happy
to accommodate you in every way possible.
What’s New at UC?
Last year, University College introduced career-focused
BPS degree and certificate programs in Creative Leadership and Knowledge Management. Classes were offered
in a hybrid format, with some online and some in a
traditional classroom. This fall, we are introducing a
FULLY ONLINE option for both degree and certificate programs. The flexible, parttime curriculum covers the “hire-level” skills employers seek in prospective employees.
Learn more about these innovative programs on page 52.
If you are new to University College, we encourage you to attend an Information Session.
See page 57 for dates and times. Meet with UC academic and financial aid advisors at
a convenient time on designated days. If this doesn’t work, you can schedule a one-onone meeting with an advisor to discuss your academic and career goals. We offer many
resources to assist you in making your dream of an SU degree an affordable, achievable
reality. We look forward to working with you every step of the way—from registration
to graduation.
To Your Success,
Bea González, Dean
Special Assistant to the Chancellor

Part-time Study at University College
Learning that fits your life
What kind of student are you?
ARE YOU AN Undergraduate Student?
1.
ARE YOU A Graduate Student?
2.
Want to work toward an associate or bachelor’s degree part-time? You’ve come to
the right place! First, you must meet with
a University College academic advisor.
Call 315-443-3261 for an appointment.
Your advisor will help you every step of
the way to assess your educational goals,
determine the transferability of any previous college credits, and assist you with
the process in which you formally apply
for matriculation. A matriculated student is
one who has applied for and been formally
granted admission to a school or college at
either the undergraduate or graduate level.
A student must be matriculated to receive
a degree from Syracuse University and to
obtain most types of financial aid. Transfer
students who have earned previous credits
at an accredited institution may transfer
into SU degree programs, upon review and
approval. For more information about transferring to University College, visit parttime.syr.
edu/transfer. From registration to graduation, your advisor will be there to help you!
If you have completed your bachelor’s degree and would like to pursue a graduate degree
but aren’t sure which degree program will best fit your talents, interests and goals, meet
with a UC academic advisor. Your advisor will give you an overview of SU programs and
then refer you to the appropriate academic department. If you want to take SU graduate
courses as a nonmatriculated graduate student, you must enroll through UC. Either way,
you’ll find all the support you need to begin this important process.
ARE YOU A Non-degree Student?
4.
Undergraduate: You do not need to be admitted to Syracuse University to take credit
courses through University College. Anyone may enroll in SU courses, provided they meet
specified academic prerequisites. You can choose from the courses listed in this schedule
(late afternoon and evening) or choose from a more extensive list of classes at MySlice.
syr.edu. Important: If you plan to apply for undergraduate admission, you should meet
with an academic advisor to be sure the classes you choose are applicable to the program
of study that interests you.
Graduate: Some students who enroll for graduate courses do not intend to apply for
admission or seek a degree. In this case, you must secure written permission from
the appropriate academic department to continue to take its graduate courses as a non­
matriculated student. Certain schools or colleges have more restrictive requirements.
For special procedures, see the credit course index for the School of Information Studies
or the School of Management.
Professional Development and Community Program Participants: Syracuse
University offers a variety of professional institutes to make businesses and employees
more productive and competitive. These include the English Language Institute, and the
TEDCenter. Details on page 68.
University College offers many unique educational opportunities to citizens of all ages.
These include Citizens Academy, Institute for Retired People, Onondaga Citizens League,
Bristol-Myers Squibb Science Horizons, Thursday Morning Roundtable, Community Folk
Art Center, and La Casita Cultural Center. Details on pages 61 and 68.
Important Note for Nonmatriculated Graduate Students:
The SU Graduate School’s regulations strongly encourage anyone enrolling at the graduate
level to take no more than two courses (six credits) before being admitted to a graduate
program of study. There are limitations on credits completed on a nonmatriculated basis
that may later be applied toward a specific graduate program. Students should consult
the specific academic department. If you are about to enroll for courses that will take you
beyond an accumulated total of 12 graduate credits (four three-credit courses), you should
either (1) take immediate steps to become a matriculated degree candidate or (2) secure
written permission from the appropriate academic department to continue to take its
graduate courses as a nonmatriculated student.
For an application for graduate study, call 315-443-4492 or visit the web site:
syr.edu/gradschool.

Who we are
Syracuse University
Chartered in 1870 as a private, coeducational institution
of higher education, Syracuse University is home to
more than 21,000 full- and part-time undergraduate and
graduate (including law) students from all 50 states and
126 countries.
Part-time students can attend as nonmatriculated students
or apply for admission and earn SU associate, bachelor’s,
and master’s degrees by enrolling through UC, which
offers academic advising, financial aid, registration, and
bursar services. All SU associate degrees are available
solely through University College.
University College (UC)
During the fall and spring semesters, University College
is the department of enrollment for part-time matriculated
undergraduates (taking up to 11 credits toward an SU
degree), distance-learning graduate students, and non­
matriculated undergraduates and graduates. It offers
academic, professional development, and enrichment
programs for these students, with open enrollment in
most courses.
UC Student Administrative Services
Making your way through the educational process can be
intimidating, so UC’s student administrative team assists
you every step of the way. Your academic and financial aid
advisors and student services coordinators are committed
to helping you navigate course choices, financial aid,
registration, and bursar processes at times that are convenient for you. The Student Administrative Services office
comprises Academic Advising, Undergraduate Admissions, Financial Aid, and a Higher Education Opportunity
Program (HEOP) as well as the Bursar and Registration
Office at University College. The office’s central number is
315-443-3261.
During the summer, UC is the administrative department
of enrollment for all full-time, part-time, and visiting students.
Enrollment in most summer courses is open to any interested student who meets academic requirements such as
prerequisites; no application for admission is required.
*These graduate programs combine short periods of
on-campus study followed by longer periods of distance
communication between faculty and students. Dates and
location of residencies vary by program.
Prospective students are encouraged to visit the graduate
school web site at syr.edu/gradschool regarding the
requirements specific to their program of interest.
Need more information about
your options?
University College Academic Advisors are
available to provide individual advice and
assistance to students.
We encourage you to ask questions, gather
information, and explore options so that you
and your advisor can develop a meaningful
academic plan. Call 315-443-3261 to set up
an advising appointment.
Arthur O. Eve Higher Education

3:30 p.m. 4:50 p.m.
Steinwert
for the 21st Century
Mobilizing communities for positive social change requires educated leaders equipped with the skills to organize people and power. Organizing can make a
difference in addressing major public challenges that demand full engagement of the citizenry, especially those whose voices are not heard unless they organize.
Leadership is accepting responsibility to enable others to achieve shared purpose in the face of uncertainty. Organizing is a way to lead by identifying, recruiting
and developing more leadership; building community around that leadership; and building power from the resources of that community. In this course, each
student accepts responsibility for organizing constituents to achieve an outcome by the end of the semester. As reflective practitioners, students learn to analyze
their leadership of this campaign. We focus on learning five key practices: equipping people to translate values into motivation through public narrative; building relationships to enable people to collaborate on behalf of shared commitments; creating structures than enable people to work as interdependent leadership
teams pursuing a common goal; strategizing to translate shared resources into the power to clear objectives; and acting to achieve specific, observable, and
measurable results for learning, accountability, and adaptation.

Integrative and Functional Medicine and their associated nutrition therapies are an upcoming area of practice for dietetic professionals and the medical community. These emerging paradigms emphasize patient centered care that is oriented toward healing using a combination of conventional and complementary
medical nutrition therapies. Chronic disease is recognized as a product of the interplay between an individual’s lifestyle choices and their genetics. Core clinical
imbalances in several body systems result in myriad disease manifestations. Antecedents, triggers and mediators that initiate and perpetuate these imbalances
are examined while concomitantly developing holistic food based interventions to target these mechanisms. Explore health, disease and wellness as an integrated function of biology, environment and behavior; food as an information molecule exerting an influence on physiological and biochemical systems and
functional approaches to nutrition status evaluation using the framework of the Nutrition Care Process.

Steinwert
for the 21st Century
Mobilizing communities for positive social change requires educated leaders equipped with the skills to organize people and power. Organizing can make a
difference in addressing major public challenges that demand full engagement of the citizenry, especially those whose voices are not heard unless they organize.
Leadership is accepting responsibility to enable others to achieve shared purpose in the face of uncertainty. Organizing is a way to lead by identifying, recruiting
and developing more leadership; building community around that leadership; and building power from the resources of that community. In this course, each
student accepts responsibility for organizing constituents to achieve an outcome by the end of the semester. As reflective practitioners, students learn to analyze
their leadership of this campaign. We focus on learning five key practices: equipping people to translate values into motivation through public narrative; building relationships to enable people to collaborate on behalf of shared commitments; creating structures than enable people to work as interdependent leadership
teams pursuing a common goal; strategizing to translate shared resources into the power to clear objectives; and acting to achieve specific, observable, and
measurable results for learning, accountability, and adaptation.

comprised of more than 100 full-time employees—including more than 70 sworn staff members—and just under
300 student employees working together to recognize and
eliminate crime and crime hazards on campus.
After learning about serious incidents that could affect the
SU community, DPS creates timely campus alerts to warn
the community of suspects at large, and to seek the community’s help in identifying suspects and gathering crime details.
This e-mail and flyer communication quickly distributes facts
about a crime, raises awareness, provides suspect descriptions, and seeks assistance in solving a crime.
For your safety, DPS offers free walking escorts on campus
and shuttle services off campus for students, staff, and faculty.
To request a safety escort, call 443-SAFE (7233).
The ORANGE ALERT system is designed to provide rapid
notification and instruction to SU students, faculty, and staff
in the event of a crisis in progress—an instance in which
there is an immediate threat of physical harm to members
of the campus community. When activated, the program
uses various forms of communication—including e-mail,
text messaging, cell/landline phones, and an on-campus
siren—to alert the community of the situation and to provide
instructions of what to do.
More than 145 blue light emergency phones are strategically
located on campus and its perimeters. In an emergency,
press the alarm button to communicate directly with DPS.
Students, parents, and employees are encouraged to read
Your Safety and Security at Syracuse University, a comprehensive campus safety booklet published each year by DPS.
To read and download a copy, visit publicsafety.syr.edu.
While programs and services covering students, staff, and
faculty safety are immeasurably valuable, statistics show that
they alone are not enough; safety is a personal responsibility. Individual decisions such as walking in groups, locking
your residence, vehicle, and office, closing propped doors,
and reporting suspicious activity have a direct impact on
maintaining a safe campus environment.
Contact the Department of Public Safety’s emergency communications center any time of the day or night at 315-4432224. You can also reach us in an emergency by dialing 711
from a campus landline, or dialing #SU (#78) on any cell
phone with Sprint, Verizon, or AT&T service. If you are in an
emergency situation and cannot make a phone call, text or
e-mail DPS at 711@syr.edu.

Registration Instructions for UC Students
Registration Eligibility
Anyone may enroll in Syracuse University classes, providing
he or she meets all academic prerequisites, as indicated in
class listings and class descriptions.
Your enrollment is contingent upon your maintaining the
same level of academic achievement, graduating from secondary school, and having a record of good citizenship at
all times. Good citizenship shall include, but not be limited
to, compliance with Syracuse University’s Code of Student
Conduct, a copy of which is available on the University’s
web site at supolicies.syr.edu/studs/ or upon request. It also
includes the absence of any other conduct which, if it had
occurred before and was known at the time of the enrollment, would have resulted in your denial to the University.
Your enrollment may be rescinded if you fail to meet these
standards.
The Syracuse University NetID
A NetID, or network ID, is a personal identifier assigned to
SU students that allows them access to many SU computing
resources.
Temporary NetIDs for New Students
New students will be issued a temporary NetID upon
completion of their initial registration. That NetID will be
e-mailed to the personal e-mail account provided by you.
A temporary password will also be e-mailed separately to
the same account. Use that information for future logins
to add additional classes or drop existing enrollment until
your permanent NetID and password are issued. The
permanent NetID will be forwarded to you within 5 business
days, once we have authenticated your student record and
finalized your payment option.
Permanent NetIDs
The permanent NetID will need to be activated by the student
in order to obtain access to the SU computing resources
including, but not limited to, an SU e-mail account,
BlackBoard, SU computer labs, and the ability to obtain an
SUID card. The student will be required to choose a password at the time of activation. Further information about the
Syracuse University NetID and password requirements is
available at its.syr.edu/accounts.

Permissions
SU’s registration system uses online “permissions.” These
permissions allow students to register for classes from
which they have been blocked because they do not meet
class restrictions or the class is closed.
The restrictions and requirements for specific classes
appear in the class listings in this schedule or in MySlice.
Students who do not meet a requirement or need special
approval must receive permission to enroll from the college
or department that controls the class. For specific information, see Permission Procedures below.
Permission Procedures
Restricted UC Classes
(Limited seating in an open class)
“U” section classes (i.e., U050) are reserved for UC students with a limited number of open spaces available to
main campus students. Registration is on a first-come,
first-served basis and once those open spaces are filled, no
further registrations by main campus students can occur.
Main campus students who need a particular UC section are
advised to register as early as possible.
Additional seats may become available to main campus
students on the first day of classes.
For UC sections with open spaces that require instructor or
department consent, UC and main campus students must
seek permission directly from the instructor or department.
For M section class permissions, contact the department
offering the class.
Career Override (Level Waiver)
A different type of permission is required for undergraduates
to register for graduate classes and graduates to register for
undergraduate classes (except PED and DTS classes). This
permission is in the form of a petition. For UC sections,
the appropriate UC program director will sign the petition.
Matriculated students also need a separate additional petition to be signed by the department through which their
degree program is offered; in the case of UC undergraduates, the UC Advising Office must sign this petition. Both
Closed Classes
(Class is filled to enrollment capacity)
If a class is closed because all seats are filled, the student
should contact the instructor of the class for permission.
The instructor will e-mail the program administrator at
University College, who will assign a permission for the
student. At that time, the student will be able to register. If
no instructor is assigned to the class, the student should
contact the program administrator directly.
Applied Music Classes
Applied Music classes (music lessons) are offered through
the College of Visual and Performing Arts’ Setnor School of
Music. Students interested in taking applied music classes
must contact the Setnor School of Music, 215 Crouse
College, 315-443-5692 to obtain a class and instructor
assignment, as well as class participation policies and fees.
Fees are required in addition to tuition charges and must
be included in payment arrangements made at the time of
registration. Registration takes place at University College
once appropriate forms have been obtained by the student.
Classes cannot be audited. Senior citizen discount and
remitted tuition benefits do not apply.
Grading Option Selection
AUDIT OPTION
Academic credit is not earned for classes that are audited.
The audited class appears on the transcript with the grading
symbol AU. Audited classes do not affect the calculation of
the grade point average (GPA), nor do they fulfill requirements in any degree program. Audited classes do not count
toward carried credits nor do they count toward calculation
of enrollment status. Eligibility for financial aid may be
affected by auditing classes. Audited classes have attendance requirements as set by the instructor of the class.
The instructor has the option of changing the grading
symbol from AU to NA if the student does not comply with
attendance requirements. Under no circumstances will an
audit be changed to credit and a grade reported after the
elect/rescind grading option deadline of the term.
Note that a student registered strictly for audits during a
term (no credit registration) has restricted access to SU
libraries and may not be able to complete assignments
required of credit students in the class being audited.
You cannot audit classes which require a Proposal for
Independent Study or Experience Credit or studio arts
classes.
Additional restrictions do apply. Check with the department
offering the class regarding auditing classes.
1. R egister for the class for credit.
3. T his will require you to pay 25 percent of the credit rate
for this class.

6. S ubmit the form to UC Bursar/Registration BY THE
ELECT RESCIND PASS/FAIL or AUDIT deadline of the
class.
7. A t this point, your registration will be changed to audit
and the cost of the class will be reduced to the audit rate.
8. Y our remaining payment will be the difference between
25 percent of the credit rate and the total audit rate.
9. T hat amount will be invoiced on the next bill date immediately following registration.
RESCINDING AN AUDIT
Once you submit your grading option selection form electing to audit the class, the only way to rescind that request
is to complete a new GRADING OPTION FORM, requesting
a change from audit to credit. The signed form must be
submitted to the UC Bursar/Registration Office by the same
ELECT RESCIND PASS/FAIL or AUDIT deadline as choosing
the audit. There is no separate deadline to retract an audit.
Forms submitted after the official deadline will
NOT be processed.
Flexible Format Classes
If you are registering for a class that meets for a shorter or
longer length than the full length of the term, the add, drop,
grading option selection, and withdraw deadlines may be
different from those published on the Dates and Deadlines
and calendar pages of this booklet. Classes that do not meet
for the entire term are considered flexible format classes and
have unique deadlines that do not conform to the published
deadlines. These deadlines are accessible via MySlice >
Search for Classes. You may also view the deadlines via
View My Class Schedule.
500-Level Classes
A 500-level class is either graduate or undergraduate level,
depending on the career level of the student. If a graduate
student registers for a 500-level class, it will be a graduatelevel class. For undergraduates, the 500-level class will be
an undergraduate level class.
UC students may petition to have the level of the class
changed. That change must be approved by the department
offering the class, and by the matriculated undergraduate
student’s home college or graduate student’s degree-granting department. Special graduate-level petitions are available at UC Bursar/Registration. UC undergrads may obtain a
petition at the UC Advising Office. Please note the deadline
to change the class level is the ADD deadline. Petitions
must be submitted by that date. See calendar pages of this
booklet for the add deadline for this term.

sponsor, the chairperson of the department in which the
student is taking the class, and the dean of the student’s
primary college. If you are a graduate student, you do not
need your dean’s signature. Note: Certain classes may have
associated fees.

a drop form to the UC Bursar/Registration office.
NOTE: The amount of any tuition adjustment will be based on the academic deadline in place on the date you drop any
full term class.*

*Flexible format classes are not full term classes. Flexible format classes start or end outside of the term,
or are shorter than the term in which they are scheduled. Classes that do not meet for the entire term are considered
flexible format classes and have unique deadlines that do not conform to the published deadlines. These deadlines are
accessible via MySlice > Search for Classes. You may also view the deadlines via View My Class Schedule.
Financial Aid recipients cannot drop below 6 credits without approval. You could be responsible to pay the
entire tuition amount for the term AND you must repay SU any refund issued to you from that financial aid. Contact the
UC Registration Office for clearance to drop if you have financial aid for summer.
Maximum Credits
University College part-time undergraduates, as well as
visiting undergraduates, can take a maximum of 11 credits.
In special circumstances, students may petition to take more
than the maximum units allowed by completing a General
Petition available in the UC Student Administrative Service
Offices (700 University Ave.) or from any SU school or
college.
Full-time undergraduates can take a maximum of 14 credits
in the summer term. Students are limited to 7 credit hours
per summer term unless a petition is approved by the home
college dean’s office. Approved petitions must be submitted
to the UC Bursar/Registration Office. Under these circumstances, such students will be assessed the appropriate
tuition charges. MAYmester is considered part of Summer
Session I.
LATE REGISTRATION
FLEXIBLE FORMAT CLASSES
Any initial registration between the first day of each
term and the add deadline of that term is con­sidered
LATE REGISTRATION and incurs a $50 late registration
fee, payable at the time of registration.
Syracuse University matriculated and non-matriculated
students may take flexible format classes to fulfill
program requirements at SU or other institutions (upon
approval from home institutions). While they have the
same academic standards and expectations as regular
semester classes, flexible format classes:
ADDING CLASSES
You can add classes through the published add deadline.
Consult the Dates and Deadlines or calendar pages of
this booklet for the last day to add a class.
NOTE: Registering for a class after the first day of the
term does NOT grant the student any extension to the
published academic deadlines to audit, pass/fail, drop or
withdraw from the class(es). In addition, the cancellation
of a scheduled class meeting day or time by the professor or department offering the class does not extend the
published deadlines.
• Do not coincide with the designated meeting patterns
associated with the University’s published terms; and
• Have unique academic and financial deadlines available via MySlice > Search for Classes. You may also
view the deadlines via View My Class Schedule once
registered.
Flexible format classes offer students personalization and
convenience, allowing them to make choices about where,
when, and how learning occurs.
REGISTRATION in a flexible format class is encouraged
before the start of the term associated with that class.
Early registration enables us to confirm enrollment and
ensure that the class is not canceled due to lack of interest. Students taking only a flexible format class may be
subject to a late registration fee if not registered prior to
the start of the term.

E-mail Policy
Administrative Drop
Grades
Syracuse University has established e-mail as a primary
vehicle for official communication with students. Each registered student and active faculty and staff member is assigned
an official Syracuse University e-mail address by Information
Technology and Services (ITS) according to a naming
convention regulated by ITS. All official University e-mail
communications will be sent to the assigned syr.edu address,
including but not limited to communications from faculty to
students registered in their classes and from administrative
units to students.
The University expects that students will receive and read
e-mail in a timely manner. Failure to receive and read
University communications delivered to official e-mail
address in a timely manner does not absolve recipients from
knowing and complying with the content of such communications.
Students may redirect their official syr.edu e-mail address to
another address, such as @hotmail.com, @yahoo.com, or @
aol.com at their own risk. The University is not responsible
for the handling of e-mail by other service providers. Having
e-mail redirected does not absolve recipients from knowing
and complying with the content of the communication sent to
their official University e-mail address.
Improper use of computing systems, including e-mail, as
described in the Responsible Use of Information Technology
Systems and Resources policy is prohibited and may result in
disciplinary action. (supolicies.syr.edu/it/email.htm).
Instructors have the option to administratively drop students
who do not attend class up to and including the add deadline.
If an emergency prevents a student from attending the first
week, he/she must contact the instructor before the add
deadline to affirm his/her intention to continue in the class. It
is not appropriate for a student to assume this action will take
place on his/her behalf. It is the student’s sole responsibility
to drop a class he/she does not plan on attending to prevent
charges from being incurred.
After final exams, your final grades will be posted by your
professor directly to your student record. You may print a
copy of your grades at your convenience on MySlice, under
Student Services, Enrollment, View Grades. If you require a
printed copy, please call the main campus Registrar’s Office
at 315-443-2422.
Attendance & Record Policies
Official Registration Required for Attending Classes
You must be officially registered in order to attend classes.
You may not attend, audit, be evaluated or otherwise
participate in classes without being officially enrolled. An
instructor may not allow you to attend classes and/or submit
work unless your name appears on the official class list or
unless you are attending with the instructor’s approval for the
purpose of making up an Incomplete. Registration may be
prevented for financial, academic, or other reasons.
Permanent Transcript Record
SU maintains a permanent academic transcript showing complete course and grade-earned information for every student,
matriculated or non-matriculated, who takes credit-bearing
coursework through any SU program. The transcript may not
be modified or selectively deleted for any reason, including
ignorance of deadlines or academic rules. Once a degree is
conferred, the transcript may not be changed except for subsequently discovered fraud or academic dishonesty, assessments
that more accurately represent academic work completed
prior to degree certification, or to correct administrative error.
In extreme cases, such changes may include the rescinding
of a degree. Syracuse University cannot provide copies of
transcripts it has received from other institutions to third parties. Students must request transcripts from the originating
institution.
Transcripts may be obtained from the Registrar’s Office syr.edu/
registrar/students/transcripts.html. SU reserves the right to
withhold copies of transcripts of students who have unfulfilled
financial obligations to the University or by request of the
Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities.
Access to transcripts and other student records is protected
by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. (See http://

Dropping Flexible Format and Irregular
Length Classes
If you are dropping a class that meets for a shorter or longer
length than the full length of the term, the deadlines to
drop that class may be different than those published on
the Dates & Deadlines and calendar pages of this booklet.
Classes that do not meet for the entire term are considered
flexible format classes and have unique deadlines that do
not conform to the published deadlines. These deadlines are
accessible via MySlice > Search for Classes. You may also
view the deadlines via View My Class Schedule.
Tuition Adjustment
A drop is effective the date you drop the class via MySlice.
The amount of any tuition adjustment is based on the academic deadline in effect on the date. Know your deadlines!
A flexible format class is a class that does not meet for the
exact length of the term. These classes have unique deadlines that most often do not coincide with the University’s
official published academic deadlines. If you are unsure
of any deadline, contact the UC Bursar/Registration office
BEFORE you drop any class!
Tuition adjustments will be credited to your account if
warranted. If the adjustment results in a credit balance, the
appropriate credit will be refunded to you or your sponsor
upon receipt of the refund request.
Refunds
Students who believe their account is overpaid due to
receipt of a student loan, for example, may request a refund
via MySlice. The web address to review Bursar information
and place request refunds is MySlice.syr.edu.
See inside back cover for key phone numbers.

Payment awards are those dollar amounts associated with
your relationship with Syracuse University. If you are an SU
employee, the spouse or dependent of an SU employee, a
graduate assistant, or have a VA scholarship, your tuition is
paid directly to us through that benefit. The dollar amount
will be indicated on the payment page of the UC Online
Registration process. You must APPLY that benefit to your
charges and make payment arrangements for any outstanding balance at the time of registration. See the Payment
Options section of this publication for a description of the
payment options available. Failure to complete the payment
portion of your registration will result in cancellation of your
entire class schedule.
SU Remitted Tuition
Grad Award (GA)
Employer Tuition Reimbursement
The student should select Estimated Grad Award (GA) as the
payment award if the student has been notified through an
award letter that he/she will be awarded tuition credits from
their academic program for the semester of registration. It is
the student’s responsibility to read and understand the terms
and conditions associated with the grad award.
Note: This option does not apply to the full-year Distance
Learning Programs (M.A. and M.S.Sc.) or programs that
meet outside the University’s published official semester
start/end dates.
Students who enter the sponsoring college and the number
of awarded credits, and accept the terms and conditions
will be allowed to proceed through the registration process
without payment at that time. This deferment is in no way
an implication that the grad award will cover the full cost
of tuition. On the first billing date of the term, the student
will be billed for any outstanding charges not covered by
the award.
(Employee, Spouse/Same Sex Domestic Partner)
VA Benefit
SU Remitted Tuition Benefit (RTB) is effective for the academic year, beginning with the fall semester. Employees
and spouses/same-sex domestic partners who do not use
all hours available to them during the academic year may
be eligible to use up to six (6) credits during the following summer. Credits not used during the academic year
or following summer are forfeited. There are no additional
benefits available or awarded exclusively for summer. Please
consult Human Resources for detailed information and
eligibility requirements related to remitted tuition. It is the
student’s responsibility to ensure RTB benefit eligibility with
Human Resources prior to registration.
If this payment award is available to the student, the tuition
award will appear as Estimated VA Benefit (VA) under
Payment Awards. Qualified students are covered under the
Post-9/11 GI Bill Educational benefit. The student will need
to APPLY the payment award and agree to the terms and
conditions. Non-covered expenses are the responsibility of
the student and payment arrangements for those expenses
must be made at the time of registration. On the first billing
date of the term, the student will be billed for any expenses
not by the award.
Non-covered tuition expenses (including fees) are the
responsibility of the student and payment is due at the
time of registration. These charges cannot be deferred nor
are they covered by the benefit. Spouses and same sex
domestic partners of SU employees who qualify for benefits
under the University’s Remitted Tuition Policy will receive
a tuition waiver of 85 percent and must make suitable payment arrangements for the remaining 15 percent, as well
as pay all applicable fees. Courses will not be dropped
without financial penalty after the financial drop deadline
due to non-receipt of this benefit, changes in coverage, or
any other non-academic reason. Employees who are not
approved for non-tax status will not retain RTB credits associated with classes dropped after the financial drop deadline.
If you are not an employee of Syracuse University and you
have been approved to receive Syracuse University credit
hours from an outside agency, such as your employer,
you should select Outside Agency Tuition Credits as your
Payment Award. If the credits have already been awarded
to you, they will appear on the payment page after you
register. Click APPLY to use the credits towards your tuition
expenses. If the award is not yet indicated on the payment
page, you may enter the number of credits and agency name
in the space provided under this payment award, and then
confirm your registration. You will be responsible for any
tuition and fees not covered by the agency and will be billed
for the outstanding amount.
The University reserves the right to refuse or restrict the
use of SU remitted tuition for certain workshop courses,
noncredit courses, and special programs.
For rules and regulations related to these employee benefits,
visit uc.syr.edu >Future and Current Students>Pay for
Classes>Payment Options or humanresources.syr.edu/
benefits.
Dependency Benefit
The student must be a dependent of an SU Faculty/Staff
member who has been approved for dependency tuition
benefits for the semester of registration through Human
Resources. It is the employee’s responsibility to ensure
employee benefit eligibility with Human Resources prior to
registration. Only matriculated SU undergraduate students
registered for six (6) or more credit hours in a semester
are eligible for this payment award. Non-covered expenses
are the responsibility of the student. Any loss of coverage
may result in student responsibility for the entire semester
tuition and expenses. Courses will not be dropped to avoid
financial penalty after the financial drop deadline due to
non-receipt or loss of this benefit. For information regarding
dependency benefits, go to humanresources.syr.edu/benefits,
or contact Human Resources at 315-443-4042.

PAYMENT OPTIONS
All students who show a Payment Due Now on the payment page of UC Online Registration process are required to
choose a payment option at the time of registration. Failure

Financial Aid
The student should select Deferred as Estimated Financial
Aid as the desired payment option if the student has met
all the criteria necessary to be awarded financial aid. That
includes, but is not limited to completing the information
under MySlice-Financial Aid-My To Do List. The student
will be allowed to proceed through the registration process
without payment at that time. This deferment is in no way an
implication that awarded financial aid will cover the full cost
of tuition. On the first billing date of the term, the student
will be billed for any outstanding charges not covered by
financial aid.
Qualified UC students may enroll in the Employer Tuition
Reimbursement Plan if their employer reimburses tuition
after classes are completed. With this plan, tuition will be
deferred until invoiced at the end of the term.
To be eligible to participate in the Employer Tuition
Reimbursement Plan:
1. T he student must be employed by an organization that
reimburses tuition charges after the semester is complete.
2. T he student must successfully register for credit classes
that meet during the regular term and do not extend
beyond the term.
3. T he student must submit the ETP application to the
UC Bursar/Registration office within 7 business days of
registering. Failure to do so will result in cancellation
of the registration.
4. T he form must be signed by the student and the appropriate company representative.
The student will be billed during the last month of the term
and is responsible to make payment by the invoice due
date. Non-reimbursement by an employer and non-receipt
of a grade are not exceptions to the tuition payment due
date. Extension will not be granted. Late fees will accrue on
the bursar account if payment is not made by the payment
due date.
Note: Eligibility is contingent upon submitting the ETP form
by the established deadline and a satisfactory payment history. SU reserves the right to deny continued participation to
anyone who has not complied with the terms of the contract.
Sponsoring Agency Direct Bill
The student should select Sponsoring Agency Direct Bill
as the desired payment option at the time of UC Online
Registration if the company or sponsoring agency will supply an authorization voucher stating that the University may
bill directly. The authorization form must be submitted to
the UC Bursar/Registration office within 7 business days of
registering. Failure to do so will result in cancellation of the
registration. The requirements for the authorization voucher,
as well as the student terms and conditions are detailed
within the payment option.
Student Deferred Payment Plan—Fall
The student who selects Student Deferred Payment Plan
as the desired payment option at the time of UC Online
Registration will pay 25 percent of the total tuition at the
time of registration. In addition, the student will pay all
fees in full at that time. Payment is made by credit card or
electronic fund transfer. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and
American Express credit cards are accepted. There is no
third party vendor fee associated with the credit card payment. Please have your information available before you
begin the registration process.
Payments are due in three (3) installments as invoiced.
Due dates are specified on the invoice.

ADVISING CLEARANCE
University College requires advising for part-time undergraduate HEOP, One-Term Trial, UC Special, and Probation
Status students. If you are in one of these groups, you will
receive a letter from the UC Student Administrative Services
Office two weeks before registration begins and must meet
with an academic advisor before registering. The letter will

To qualify for most types of financial aid through UC, you
must be a member of one of the student groups listed
below, demonstrate financial need, and, for most forms
of aid, enroll at SU for at least six credits during the fall,
spring, or summer semesters. Students may qualify for
loans without demonstrating financial need.

Aid Sources for Part-Time
Undergraduates
Grants and Scholarships
Students must be matriculated.
• Pell Grant: a nonrepayable, federal need-based award.
• UC Grant: a nonrepayable, need-based tuition award.
• UC Scholarship: a nonrepayable, need-based tuition
award available to students who have completed 12 credits through UC with a minimum 2.99 cumulative GPA.
• Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity
Program (HEOP): nonrepayable funds for financially
and academically dis­advantaged New York State residents.
For more information, contact the UC HEOP Office,
315-443-3261.
• Federal Work Study Program (FWSP): a need-based,
federally funded work grant available when requested,
depending on availability of University FWS allocation.
Students must request FWSP to be considered.
Online application available at parttime.syr.edu/aidforms.
View seo.syr.edu for job information.
• Other Scholarships: limited external scholarships are
available to students who qualify for part-time (UC) financial aid. Scholarships may be used toward tuition only,
when charges are not covered by another source, such as
employer tuition benefits. Information about these scholarships can be found at the UC Financial Aid web site at
parttime.syr.edu/finaid and the Office of Financial Aid
and Scholar­ship Programs web site at financialaid.syr.edu.
Students are also encouraged to explore FastWEB and
ScholarAid. Both are online scholarship search services.
The address for FastWEB is www.fastweb.com. ScholarAid
is www.scholarsaid.com.
Student Loans
• Federal Subsidized Loan: low-interest, need-based
loan.
• Federal Unsubsidized Loans (non-need based):
student loans are available to all students regardless of
family income. The Unsubsidized loan is designed for
students who do not qualify for traditional student loans
based on financial need (but satisfy all other eligibility criteria). The terms and conditions are the same as
Subsidized Loans, except that the student must pay interest (or choose to capitalize interest) on this loan during
in-school and deferment periods. Loan limits are different
for dependent and independent undergraduate students
under the federal student loan program.
· New borrowers must sign an online Master
Promissory Note for subsidized/unsubsidized loans
at www.studentloans.gov.
· New borrowers must also complete loan entrance
counseling, also available at www.studentloans.gov.
· The FAFSA PIN is required to log onto the site for
both.
· Frequently check your To Do List in MySlice to
determine if any additional information is needed.
Parent and Grad PLUS borrowers
Application information is available online at
www.studentloans.gov.
You will not want to complete your application too
early, as your credit approval is valid for only a short
period of time (typically up to 180 days).
• Private/Alternative Education Loan Programs:
non-need based loans for students who are not matriculated, taking fewer than six credits, or enrolled in a
certificate program. Eligibility is determined by student’s
credit worthiness. For additional borrowing information,
go to http://www.syr.edu/ financialaid/loans/alternative_
private_student_loans.html.
Special Aid Options
• UC Incentive Grant (non-need based): The University
College Incentive Grant is a tuition grant for new
University College undergraduate students and those
returning after an absence of at least five years. To be eligible, students enroll in 3 credits, placing a 25% deposit
at the time of registration. If they drop by the financial
drop deadline the deposit will be refunded. If the student
remains enrolled, an incentive grant that covers 50% of
the tuition cost will be awarded. Students are responsible
for payment of the remaining 25% upon invoice due date.
Grant may be renewed for two additional semesters
when enrolling in consecutive terms. Full details
available at parttime.syr.edu/students/prospective/finaid/
additionalinfo/index.html
•UC Achiever Scholarship: This is a merit-based scholarship available to undergraduates at the time of admission when transferring from another college to Syracuse
University through UC. You must have at least 30 credits
of transferable coursework, and meet other criteria. Details
available at parttime.syr.edu/finaid in the merit-based
assistance section.
Aid Sources for Graduate
Distance Education Students
• Student Loans: Federal Unsubsidized Loan. See
description listed in previous column for additional information. Graduate students may apply for Graduate PLUS
after unsubsidized loan. See “Parent and Grad PLUS borrowers” in previous column for application information.
• Grants: a nonrepayable need-based tuition award.
Students must demonstrate financial need and be matriculated in one of the following distance education degree
programs:
- M.S. Communications Management
- M.S. Social Science
Veterans Benefits
Students who are eligible for Veterans Administration
Education Benefits must apply to use them each semester
of enrollment. Benefits (i.e., the “G.I. Bill”) approved for use
during the previous semester are not continued unless the
student so requests, and registration does not automatically
activate your benefits. Copies of the request form can be
printed from the veteran’s web site: vrc.syr.edu. For veteran
educational benefits information, visit vrc.syr.edu or call
315-443-9297. Note: Veterans Vocational Rehabilitation
Benefits are NOT the same as VA Educational Benefits.
Students using Vocational Rehabilitation Awards must work
through their assigned VA counselor for the direct billing
process with the University’s Bursar Office.
View Financial Aid Status Online
Using their NetID, students may view their financial aid
status online in the Financial Aid area of MySlice
(MySlice.syr.edu) titled “My Financial Aid.”
My Financial Aid is designed to keep you apprised of your
financial aid status, display your awards and notify you of
any outstanding requirements you need to complete.
Periodically check your “To Do” List to make sure you have
fulfilled any filing requirements.

Application Procedures
Application instructions and forms are available online
at parttime.syr.edu/finaid or in our office. Call our office
(315-443-3261) or e-mail finaid@uc.syr.edu if you would
like an application mailed to you.
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for most aid, you must:
1) be matriculated. Only courses taken at SU may be
considered when determining your financial aid
eligibility. For student loans, at least half-time enrollment (at least 6 credits per semester) is required,
2) be a U.S. citizen or an eligible noncitizen;
3) demonstrate financial need (loans are available for
students who do not demonstrate financial need);
4) be in good academic standing and making satisfactory
progress in your course of study;
5) not be in default on a Title IV student loan or PLUS loan;
6) not owe an overpayment on any Title IV grant or loan;
7) register with selective service, if required;
8) meet the financial aid application priority deadlines;
9) submit 2014 tax transcript, if requested
10) have a 2015-2016 Free Application for Federal Student
Aid (FAFSA) on file.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
Maintaining financial aid eligibility requires students’
to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements.
Academic progress is defined as earning a minimum number of academic credits of those attempted and maintaining
an acceptable grade point average (GPA). Standards are
available online at parttime.syr.edu/tuition-financial-aid/
applying-renewing-financial-aid/satisfactory-academicprogress/, in the University College Student Planner, or
from the UC Financial Aid office. Students not meeting
requirements will be notified by the UC Financial Aid
Office by mail.
Financial Aid Estimates
Part-time students can apply for financial aid before formally applying for admission and the UC Financial Aid Office
can estimate eligibility if forms are submitted. To receive
most forms of aid, you must be accepted into a degree
program (matriculated).
Financial Aid as Form of Payment
If you expect to receive financial aid and wish to use your
financial aid as a form of payment when registering, you
must have all your required application information on file
with the UC Financial Aid office. For assistance with forms,
please make an appointment with your UC financial aid
advisor at 315-443-3261. A signed Payment Promissory
Note and, in cases where aid does not fully cover charges, a
payment must accompany the registration forms. Financial
aid may not be used as deposit for Student-Deferred Tuition
Plan.
Dropping or Withdrawing
Contact the Financial Aid Office before dropping or withdrawing from a course. Any change in enrollment can
affect your financial aid eligibility. Student loan
applicants and recipients must be enrolled for at least six
(6) credits each term to qualify for new loans and to continue deferring prior loans.
NOTE: As of fall 2006 faculty have the option to administratively drop students after the first week of classes for nonattendance. See page 73 for details.

be notified of awards in preferred time period. UC Financial Aid is limited. Eligible students may be denied a grant
or scholarship if money has been depleted. Early application is strongly encouraged.
A Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is required for all federal aid, including federal student loans.
Please allow 2 weeks for FAFSA processing to reach Syracuse University. Don’t forget, you can register by enrolling in the Student-Deferred Tuition Plan by placing a 25% down payment while awaiting financial aid notification,
if needed.
You may file the FAFSA online at fafsa.ed.gov.
• Fall 2015 requires the 2015-16 FAFSA. January 1, 2015 is the FIRST day to file.
Credit Balance Refunding
Beginning the first day of classes each term, students can
request refund of credit balances resulting from financial
aid overpayment of university charges. A request must be
submitted to the Main Campus Bursar Operations, either
directly at 102 Archbold North or online at MySlice.syr.edu.
The online request form is in the student account section
of MySlice. Approved refunds may be picked up at Cash
Operations in the Schine Student Center, mailed to the student or deposited to a bank account (student must provide
bank account information). Student indicates refund method
when placing the request. Refund status questions should
be directed to Main Campus Bursar Operations, bursar@
syr.edu or 315-443-2444.

Child Care
Undergraduate students who require child care services
in order to continue their education and who demonstrate
financial need may qualify for funds to support child care
while they attend classes. Students must complete an
application each semester they request funds. Applications
are available online: parttime.syr.edu/tuition-financial-aid/
additional-financial-aid-resources/forms-links/. Child care
providers are paid from funds posted to a qualified student’s
Bursar account.
Through sponsorship from Syracuse University’s Human
Resources department, University College has entered into a
partnership with Child Care Solutions, a local not-for-profit
organization that provides information and resources to
parents who need child care. Child Care Solutions provides
information about choosing quality child care, referrals for
personalized consultations, printed profiles of programs and
providers, access to an interactive web site and educational
materials for parents. Applications will be processed if
funds are available each term.

The information concerning academic requirements, courses, and programs
of study contained in this catalog does not constitute an irrevocable contract
between the student and the University. The University reserves the right to
change, discontinue, or add academic requirements, courses, and programs of
study. Such changes may be made without notice, although every effort will be
made to provide timely notice to students. It is the responsibility of the individual
student to confirm that all appropriate degree requirements are met.
Syracuse University is chartered by the New York State Board of Regents and
accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools.

college.
Permanent Transcript Record
Every time you take a course for credit, Syracuse University creates and
maintains a permanent transcript record showing complete course and gradeearned information. This applies to all students—whether you are admitted
into a degree program (matriculated) or not (unmatriculated).
Your transcript record information may not be modified or selectively deleted
for any reason (including failure to comply with drop and withdrawal deadlines)
regardless of subsequent changes in enrollment or student status. Official
transcripts requested from the Transcript Office (109 Steele Hall) will show the
entire record of both undergraduate and graduate coursework. SU complies
with the Family Rights and Privacy Act in regard to student records.
