Attendance at Pratt

• Change of Major Form

  - Students seeking approval to transfer from one Program of Study (Major) to another within the same school, must fill out this form and secure signed approvals by both Department Chairpersons and/or your Academic Advisor. Evaluation of Transfer credits must be completed by an authorized evaluator for the new program of study.
  
  - Students who wish to transfer from one school to another in the Institute (e.g. from Painting the School of Art and Design to the School of Architecture) must complete a Change of School Transfer Application and return it to the Office of Admissions no later than June 1 for the fall term and December 15 for the spring term. A $50 application fee must accompany this application. Students must meet the admissions criteria for the program to which they are applying. Credit transferred to the new program from either Pratt or other colleges is not computed in the new grade point average. Students are required to make an appointment with the Office of Admissions to determine transfer credit. A limit of one transfer between schools will be considered. Students requesting a second transfer will be required to obtain additional approval from both deans and the Office of the Provost.

• Incomplete Form

  -A grade of "INC" Incomplete requires both the instructor and student to sign and submit the Incomplete Form to the Office of the Registrar. It is available only if the student has been in regular attendance, has satisfied all but the final requirements of the course, and has furnished satisfactory proof that the work was not completed because of illness or other circumstances beyond his/her control. The student must understand the terms necessary to fulfill the requirements for the course and the date by which work must be submitted. If the work is not submitted by the understood date of submission - not exceeding the end of the following term - the incomplete will be converted to a failure. If unresolved at the end of the following Semester, the grade is changed to a failure with a numerical value of 0.00.
   

• Application for Graduation

  — students must notify the Registrar via this online application when they are ready to graduate. This application must be completed before the deadline in the student's second-to-last semester. This allows the Registrar's Office sufficient time to review your record, address any concerns, and notify you of important graduation information.

• Leave of Absence or Withdrawal

  The Office of the Registrar has merged Leave of Absence requests and Withdrawals into one form:
  Leave of Absence
  — a student in good academic standing (min. 2.0 for undergrad, min. 3.0 for graduate) may be absent from Pratt Institute for one or two semesters.
  — extensions beyond one year require a new application to be filed.
  — must be filed before the last day to drop a class in a given semester.
  Withdrawing
  — required before dropping or withdrawing from all classes for a semester.
  — financial relief is only granted if there is a sudden and severe reason for the withdrawal. Students seeking financial relief for withdrawing will have to address the Institute Financial Appeals Committee. These students should speak to the Administrative Assistant in the Student Affairs Office.

• Readmission to Pratt Institute

  — required after skipping enrollment for a spring or fall semester without completing a Leave of Absence.

• Non-Degree and Visiting Student Application

  — for students who want to take up to six credits at Pratt Institute without matriculating and visiting students from other colleges who must be full-time students for a semester or two. For more information on these enrollment options, go to the Non-Degree Students page.
