Please read the following steps for completing and processing the Transient Petition form:

2. Complete the student information section and the university information section.  The total number of hours you have completed must be filled in.
   
   
3. Fill in the course number, course title, and credit hours at the host institution.
   
   
4. The John Carroll University department chair will fill in the JCU equivalent.  You will need the signature of the JCU department chair.
   
   
5. Indicate how you want the class to transfer to JCU.  For example, core requirement such as a letter designation or division, major, minor, or concentration.  A course description is required for core course.
