• You are required to fill out a Transfer of Course Work form (PDF) in addition to the GPACU Cross Registration Application for each course. Both forms, should be turned into the Registrar's Office at the same time. We will not process your GPACU Application without this supporting documentation.

• You must be registered for credits at 49ͼ¿âthat are equal to or exceed the number of credits you intend to take through GPACU.
• 49ͼ¿âis willing to export you after our add/drop period has closed if the add/drop period at the host institution is still open. Please refer to the individual host institution's academic calendar.
