                                Senate Document #60



                                 APC Document #39

                       Agreements With Two Year Institutions





   APC recommends the following statement replace the current attachments to the

   agreements with Asheville-Buncombe Technical College; Blue Ridge Technical

   College; McDowell Technical College:  



   Since each student is evaluated individually, we can only generalize.  The

   reason forthis individual treatment is that students transferring have taken

   different electives.  For example, some transfer students do not take

   Statistics or Computer Science as electives.  Some students have not had both

   Accounting I and Accounting II.  Some students (usually nurses) have had the

   equivalent of Chemistry I and II and Biology I and II while others have not

   taken the sequence of the natural sciences, but have had Chemistry I but not

   II or Biology I but not II.  In the latter case, the courses taken can

   partially satisfy the language option but not the natural science sequence.  



   Following are the procedures required of all transfer students from the

   captioned technical schools:  



   1.  Application for admission to the Admissions Office.  This includes

   receipt of a transcript certifying that the student has received the AAS

   degree.  



   2.  The Registrar's Office or the Admissions Office prepares a paper that

   states what courses the student must take to satisfy UNCA degree requirements

   in accordance with the appropriate technical college contract.  A copy of the

   student's file is sent to the Management Department.  



   3.  The Management Department makes an appointment with the student to

   outline his or her curriculum requirements depending on the track the student

   chooses.  Most students choose the General Track or the Health Care

   Administration Track.  Some of the students choosing the general track will

   transfer to accounting when the latter is authorized.  All students will

   start as advisees of the chairman of the department.  



        At this meeting the advisor reviews each requirement of the student.

   All must satisfy the all-university requirements including the requirement of

   30 hours of 300-400 courses.  If a student has had, for example, Business Law

   (UNCA Mgmt 340) or Auditing (UNCA Mgmt 415) the student would not be required

   to repeat the course.  However, the student could not use the course taken at

   a technical school to satisfy the 300-400 course requirements.  



   4.  During the 1st semester after admission the student's advisor outlines

   the department's requirements and sends one copy to the Registrar, one copy

   to the student and files one copy with the student's departmental file.  



   5.  The Management Department is setting up an annual review procedure to

   evaluate the results of these transfer agreements.
