ART HISTORY STUDY AWAY RULES:

A student who takes a non-Bowdoin Art History course away, to fulfill a requirement in Art History, MUST have an Art History professor APPROVE the away course IN WRITING PRIOR to going away. The course(s) must be successfully completed with a grade of C- or better.

The Art History Department Study Away Approval Form is IN ADDITION to the Study Away Application and the Student Records Transfer of Credit Forms.

When you return to Bowdoin and after the department receives your away transcript, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to obtain a Study Away Transfer Credit Approval Form from the Art History academic coordinatorand obtain from the Art History professor who approved the away course verification that you will receive Art History requirement credit.

If you do not follow up with the professor on your return, the course(s) away will not be given Art History requirement credit. In some cases this will mean that you will not meet your major/minor requirement.
