Application Procedures

A student wishing to participate in any off-campus program sponsored by the Colleges is required to complete the application form (blue form) which can be obtained from the Hobart or William Smith Dean's Office or from the Office of Off-Campus Programs in Coxe Hall. It can also be found on-line here. Please note that some programs require additional application forms which can be picked up at information nights or from the Office of Off-Campus Programs.

A student wishing to participate in an off-campus program sponsored by another institution is required to complete the application form: Application For Approval To Participate in Another Institution's Off-Campus Program (green form) which can also be obtained from the two offices listed above. Failure to complete this form and submit all required documents on time may adversely affect a student's ability to transfer credit from another program.
