Additional Degrees
Second Degrees
Students may pursue a second degree with the approval of the vice president for Academic Affairs. Students seeking a second
associate or baccalaureate degree must earn a minimum of 30 credit hours beyond the credit hours counted toward the previous
degree. Students are expected to meet both the specific major requirements of the degree and any All-College requirements, even if
this requires more than 30 academic credit hours.
In addition:
• Students interested in pursuing a second degree must consult with the appropriate program director before taking courses
applicable to that degree;
• At least 24 academic credit hours applicable to the second degree must be earned through Cazenovia College;
• If pursuit of the second degree follows continuously from the first degree (i.e. there is no break in residence between award
of the first degree and work on the second degree), the student is obligated to meet all academic requirements in force in the
year of beginning the second degree;
• Where there is substantial overlap in the major requirements of the two degrees (for example, 15 or fewer credit hours
of unique work to complete the second major), the student must define, with the appropriate program director, the 30
academic credits of coursework necessary to earn the second degree; and
• If an internship is required in the second degree, it must be completed satisfactorily regardless of whether an
internship was required for the first degree.
Dual Degrees
Students may pursue two degrees concurrently with the approval of the vice president for Academic Affairs. Students are
encouraged to contact each Academic program director prior to requesting concurrent degrees. Students should request approval, in
writing, from the vice president for Academic Affairs, and prior to engaging in coursework for a dual degree.
Students seeking dual degrees are required to successfully complete the degree requirements for each academic program.
Students enrolled in dual degrees may be required to complete a Senior Capstone for each degree. Students may be able to decrease
the number of cumulative credits required for a dual degree by securing course waivers and/or substitutions. Waivers and/or
substitutions are initiated with the students’ academic adviser.
Transcripts
Transcripts of grades are furnished to the student free of charge while in attendance at Cazenovia College. A fee for each
transcript will be charged to all former students. Payment must be received with each request. All requests for transcripts must be
made in writing to the Enrollment Services Center. Transcripts will not be issued to any party without the written permission of the
student. All financial obligations to Cazenovia College must be satisfied before a student or graduate will be issued a transcript.

Withdrawal from the College
All students wishing to withdraw from the College and remain in good standing must go through a formal withdrawal process
which must be initiated before the end of the final exam period. This process begins with an exit interview in the Enrollment
Services Center. Residential students must also meet with a representative from the Office of Residence Life. The withdrawal
process concludes with completion of a withdrawal survey and final withdrawal at the Enrollment Services Center.
Students who withdraw for non-medical reasons after the midpoint of the term receive a grade of "W" in all courses and will
not be readmitted to the College prior to the resumption of classes in the next term. Any student who wants to return must
complete a readmission application at the Admissions Office in order to be readmitted.
Students who withdraw for medical reasons after the midpoint of the term ordinarily receive a grade of "W" in all courses and
will not be readmitted to the College prior to the resumption of classes in the next term. Under extraordinary circumstances,
requests for partial withdrawal from courses will be given consideration by the Academic Affairs Office in consultation with the
College Counseling Center and Health Services Office. Students who withdraw for medical reasons will be required to provide
formal documentation to the Health Services Office.
Students who do not go through the formal withdrawal process jeopardize their future in higher education and their
opportunity to have official records or recommendations provided by the College.
