Off Campus Study Requirement

Off-campus study options include:

• Internships taken for SAIC credit and arranged through CAPX

• SAIC sponsored winter and summer study trips

• Semester Away/Study Abroad with international and domestic SAIC exchange partners

• Winter and summer courses at Ox-Bow School of Art

• SAIC classes designated to fulfill off-campus requirements (these classes can be found in Self Service when searching for classes when you select "Course Attribute" and select "Off-Campus requirement".)

All incoming undergraduate students are required to complete six credits* of off-campus study with the exception of BAAH students, who are required to complete three credits of off-campus study toward their degree. Courses that satisfy the off-campus requirement can also satisfy degree requirements for studio, liberal arts, and/or art history credit.

Consultation with an academic advisor is recommended to confirm course selections that fulfill the off-campus study requirement.

*Transfer students who are awarded at least 12 transfer credits, but less than 36 transfer credits are required to complete three credits of off-campus study requirements. Transfer students who are awarded 36 credits or more are waived from the requirement.
