To get your study abroad courses approved, you must first make sure the classes you are planning on petitioning for are upper division, 4 units and Film and Media focused. The next step is to fill out the Course Waiver Petition and attach the course syllabus. Our faculty advisors will review your petition and decide if the course can be applied to the major. You will receive an email confirmation once approved.
If your petition was denied, I will inform you over email and you will need to either look for a different course or plan on taking your major requirements on campus.
You can petition for these courses either before or after you study abroad. Please note that your grades will need to be posted before your APR can be updated.
