Transient Students

A visiting student who attends another postsecondary institution and who seeks credit for transfer to that parent institution may be admitted to the institution as a transient student. The student must submit an application for admission and an official letter from the institution (transient letter) which certifies that the credit earned at the institution will be accepted as a part of the student's academic program. Beginning Fall 2011, transient students must provide documentation of satisfying pre-requisites. The College will accept official or unofficial transcripts from students and can be emailed to transient@sheltonstate.edu.
   
Transient letters must be submitted for each semester the student attends Shelton State prior to registering for classes and are valid for the current semester only. Transient letters must be on file in the Office of Admissions prior to registration. Transient letters and official or unofficial transcripts may be emailed to transient@sheltonstate.edu . Advisors are available at any time and you may make an appointment by calling 205.391.2232.

  1. Complete the online Application for Admission (Photo Id and signature page)
  2. Email transient letter to the Office of Admissions and Records.
  3. Once the application and transient letter is processed, you will be able to web register.
