Dean of Students - Transfer Reports

Greetings Counseling Discipline,

I hope you all are well!  As March 1^st and other transfer application deadlines approach, you may have students preparing their materials and inquiring about how to get their transfer reports completed.  If anything needs to be completed by the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs, please share this link with students - https://www.emailmeform.com/builder/emf/MCSA/DeansOfficeRelease.  We need this online form completed before we’ll release information.  Moreover, students can upload their documents using the form as well.  It is filtered appropriately based on the campus selected by the student. 

Please let me know if you have questions.

Mr. Marcus E. Peanort  |  Associate Dean of Student Affairs

Common Application - College Advisor

Regarding the Common Application:

In the MC meeting with Common Application staff last week, we said that the fact that every student must provide the name of an Adviser seems unnecessary because college advisers cannot give recommendations for all students.  It IS a necessary part of the current Common App, so if students ask if they can list your name as an Adviser, please allow them to do so.  They can’t submit an application without an adviser name. You will NOT be asked to give a recommendation for the student – Common App said that they might contact the Adviser if there was something “missing” from the application so that we could prompt the student to finish the application – we also said that this is not a typical college responsibility and they agreed that they probably can eliminate this from future Comm App forms for Transfer Students.  Nevertheless, at this point, every student filling out the Common Application must list a College Adviser with name, address, e-mail and phone number – so please be willing to give this information if asked and be assured that you are not providing a recommendation for the student nor will you later be asked to give one – that is in a different section called “Transfer Academic Evaluations.”

Completing the Common Application

MC ADVICE FOR THE COMMON APPLICATION Transfer Students:  Common Application (CA4) Directions

What is the Common Application (CA4)?

The Common Application (CA4) is an on-line college admission application that students may submit to over 500 member schools. Go to the website to see which institutions require the Common Application. Please note that Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari is needed to properly download and submit the CA4. Transfer students must submit the CA4 application electronically. Transfer students will only be able to download and print the following two forms:

1.    “Transfer Registrar Report” (where the Dean/Associate Dean will complete the College Official’s information)

2.    “Transfer Academic Evaluation Form” (for letters of recommendation).

These two forms will be populated with the student’s name once they set-up their CA4 application profile.  Students can also choose to have the Transfer Academic Evaluation Form sent electronically to Instructors for the recommendation.

Transfer students need to fill out or provide information for the following forms:

1.    www.commonapp.org Follow all the directions through submission for the “Transfer Application Package”. 

2.    Transfer Academic Evaluation Form:  Print the PDF of an evaluation form and give it to your evaluator, preferably with an addressed, stamped envelope or electronically send it to an evaluator.  You may want to share your resume with the evaluator writing the recommendation. 

3.    Transfer Registrar Report: This form can be downloaded (with the student information populated  on it) and brought to the Associate Dean’s Office to be completed. This form “DOES NOT” go to the Registrar or the Admissions Office. It should be taken to the Dean of Student Services' office on your MC campus. 

4.    Final Report: This is generally not necessary for a transfer student, as it refers to high school work. However, check the “Supplement Page” of the four year institution to ascertain if they want the student’s high school transcript and standardized test scores.

5.    Essays: Some schools require additional essays, portfolios, and/or an interest statement. Check the “Supplement Page” of the CA4 for each college for additional information the student has to provide.
