- If an initial TCE has already been prepared and the student completed the specific course through the JCITA during the indicated effective dates after the official evaluation was completed, they can send in the updated paperwork. A TCE Update Request Form must also be submitted to initiate the review process.
- If a student changes their degree program, they are eligible for a review of their JCITA
certificate(s) for possible transfer credit. - If a student has already had an initial TCE completed, their documentation has already been reviewed, and no additional paperwork is to be submitted, they are NOT eligible for this internal policy.
Students must send in a copy of their certificate(s) of completion from the JCITA along with a TCE Application. Documentation of successful completion may make a student eligible for the following transfer credit recommendations, depending on undergraduate degree program requirements.
