    Semester, Session, or Year Abroad for Deree Students (p. 38
    Deree Undergraduate Catalog http://www.acg.edu/undergraduate/undergraduate-programs/)
    Students who plan to study abroad for one or two semesters and who want to transfer credits earned abroad to Deree - ACG must
    secure the approval of both the department head(s) and an academic advisor of the Academic Advising Office for the course(s) they
    intend to take abroad one semester in advance. All students who wish to take courses abroad must submit, along with the petition, a
    catalog of the accredited college or university they plan to attend or details of the programs they plan to follow and, if possible,
    syllabi of the courses they intend to take, accompanied by certified English or Greek translations if original transcripts are in a third
    language. Students who want to study abroad at an affiliated institution must have attended Deree - ACG for at least one semester,
    have passed WP1010 with a grade of B or equivalent (see next paragraph), have completed a minimum of 30 US credits with an
    overall CI of 3.0 or above, and have an exemplary discipline record. Such students are considered to be exchange students and
    continue to be matriculating at Deree - ACG while studying abroad. Those interested must contact the Study Abroad Office at least a
    semester before they intend to begin their study abroad. Certificate Minor students must submit to the College evidence of English
    proficiency that places them in WP 1010 or above (see “Evidence of Proficiency in English” section) either before they enter their
    second semester at Deree or before they start their study abroad program. Those students are advised to have satisfied the English
    language proficiency requirement before they make any arrangements for studying abroad. Students cannot be granted credit for, or
    exempted from, courses at Level 6 unless a course is required in their minor. For transfer courses students must earn a minimum
    grade which is equivalent to a “C” in the Deree grading scale (see “Grades” section). All transfer credit requests are handled by the
    Validation Office.

    […] Degree-seeking students, and non-degree seeking students who enroll in courses outside of Greece as Deree study abroad
    students, may transfer a maximum of fifty percent (50%) of the credits required towards the completion of a minor. Other non-degree
    seeking students must complete at least 15 US credits at Deree. Transfer courses toward a minor are accepted only from accredited
    institutions. No grades are assigned to credits accepted for transfer. For transfer courses students must earn a minimum grade which
    is equivalent to a “C” in the Deree grading scale (see section “Grades”), (see section “Semester, Session or Year Abroad for Deree
    Students”).

    path in your statement of interest. Please note that these courses will not be transferred towards your
    minor.

    forms for study abroad stating their preferred destination. Each scholar is entitled to one study abroad
