Registration for Bryn Mawr, Haverford, or University of Pennsylvania Courses for Spring 2010 Registration for Bryn Mawr and Haverford CoursesSPRING 2010 Swarthmore students who wish to take a course at Haverford or Bryn Mawr must register in person at BOTH Swarthmore and the other school (Haverford or Bryn Mawr). Haverford's Registrar Office telephone number is 610-896-1233. Bryn Mawr's Registrar Office telephone number is 610-526-5141. You must register within both our Add/Drop period and theirs. For Classes with limited enrollment (see Bryn Mawr/Haverford course schedule), normally there will be a lottery. In order to register for a course at Bryn Mawr or Haverford you must: If you have not properly enrolled at either Bryn Mawr or Haverford AND Swarthmore, you will not receive a grade for the course. You are not allowed to take a course at these colleges (or elsewhere) that repeats one you have previously taken at Swarthmore without the Department specifically approving the repetition in a separate note or letter to be attached to the form. Our students who take courses at Haverford and Bryn Mawr do so under the rules concerning papers, examinations, grading, deadlines for completed work and so on, that pertain at those colleges (i.e., please be aware that beginning Languages at Bryn Mawr and Haverford are year-long courses; both semesters are required for credit, as is true at Swarthmore). Students should plan ahead so as to manage their work successfully on this basis. Exceptions based on difference of procedures between their regulations or calendar and ours will not be granted. Copies of the honor code of Bryn Mawr and Haverford Colleges are available in the Registrar's Office at Swarthmore. If you drop, withdraw, or make any changes to your registration or the grading mode of the Bryn Mawr or Haverford course, you must notify both the Registrar's Office at Swarthmore College and the Registrar's Office at the other school(s). Transportation Advisory: The three colleges support the Tri-Co Van shuttle service. This is the only transportation Swarthmore makes available to you to attend classes at Bryn Mawr or Haverford. Learn the schedule and use it wisely. If you miss the last shuttle or if shuttle service stops due to inclement weather or emergency, you are advised to seek safe emergency housing through the public safety office of the campus on which you find yourself, then contact your professors as needed to let them know why you are not coming and arrange to make up the work, and await the next shuttle as it becomes available.

We will fax the Reciprocal Form to UPENN ’s College of Liberal and Professional Studies (LPS). They will e-mail you regarding your UPENN course registration status. 4) When you get the email from LPS, you must meticulously follow all the instructions in that email, which sometimes contains many steps for you to do. Follow all the instructions in order to be fully registered for credit, including the Student Guide instructions for your PennCard and PennKey setup. CAUTION: Credit approval is ONLY possible with LPS registration. Do NOT seek Penn faculty permission to add a class. At Penn, faculty permission or grade is NOT sufficient to earn credit.

UPENN does not permit Swarthmore students to register for any courses at the graduate or professional levels. Furthermore, Swarthmore students are not permitted to audit courses at UPENN. UPENN's Office of Liberal and Professional Studies can deny any proposed course a Swarthmore student wants to take. Swarthmore always respects the College of Liberal and Professional Studies' decisions as gatekeeper of UPENN courses. Our application form requires that you obtain approval from both your faculty advisor and the Swarthmore department under whose purview the course falls, as well as from the Swarthmore Registrar. Approval from the Swarthmore Registrar is based on the course being one that is not available at Swarthmore, is relevant to the student's overall educational plan, and has been approved by the appropriate department here. Swarthmore students who take courses at UPENN do so under the rules concerning papers, examinations, grading, deadlines for completed work, and so on, that pertain THERE. Exceptions based on differences between their regulations or calendar and ours will not be granted. Caution-Seniors taking courses at UPENN in the spring semester: all your final grades must be received by Swarthmore 10 days before Commencement or you could be withheld from graduating on time. Be sure the course and your work for it is done in time for you to graduate. NEW UPENN TRAVEL SUPPORT GUIDELINES!!! Swarthmore has provided support for travel to students who wanted to take classes at the University of Pennsylvania. Starting this semester, we will limit that support according to the guidelines below. The restrictions and procedures described below have some significant differences from the past, so please be sure to read through the description below, take note of the changes on the forms, and take note of the deadlines, especially note the November 25, 2009 deadline, for consideration of support. The changes are made predominantly in an attempt to provide the opportunity to study off our campus to as many students as possible. Travel allowances will be determined based on the following criteria: (1) Students who wish to be fully considered should submit their UPENN COURSE REGISTRATION FORM (available in the Registrar's Office and online) by November 25, 2009, the end of Swarthmore's pre-registration for the Spring 2010 semester. (2) We have a total budget of $5000 each semester to cover all students. Priority will be given to students who have not taken a class off campus and those who have not been supported to take a class off campus. First year students will not be eligible to receive
financial support. After the deadline of November 25, 2009, if we project that there will still be support available, students will be supported on a first come, first served basis until funds are exhausted. (3) The maximum allowance per semester will normally be as follows: (4) Students who receive funding will be expected to submit receipts by the submission deadlines: (5) If a student who receives funding is denied access to a course, changes sections, or drops a course, the funding will be adjusted accordingly. We expect to notify students who have requested support by the week
before classes whether or not they received funding, and if so, how much.
