Know Before You Go - Challenges

Off-Campus study is a time of challenge and change. The following are some things you should understand about this program before you participate:

New York City is a fast-paced, crowded, costly and often intimidating place for those who have little experience in such an environment. This is known to cause higher levels of stress for people who live here including college students.听 Kings College has 2 full-time staff counselors available to students who desire emotional/mental 色综合久久.
Don't even think about bringing a car to campus!听 People's shoes are their cars in Manhattan.听 To get from a to b, when you're not walking, you'll likely be standing on a crowded subway train or bus.听 There are handicap accessible portions of the city, but in general it is important that you are physically capable of walking long distances in various types of weather.听
听NYCS students live in campus housing, which typically consists of a single bedroom apartment (for 4 people) or a studio (for 2 people) with a kitchen, small sitting area and one bathroom. This sort of living situation is likely to be a challenge for students who are used to having more space.
Living in an autonomous setting where the student is in charge of grocery shopping, meal planning and prep and budgeting for expenditures.听 There is no meal plan.听 Each apartment has its own kitchen.听 There is a subsidized cafeteria on The King鈥檚 College campus that is open weekdays for breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks. 听
NYC is at about sea level and is surrounded by water. This comes with the possibility of hurricane weather and other extreme conditions. Depending on the time of year, New Yorkers are often subject to blizzards, heat waves, extreme wind, and extreme humidity. It is important for NY-ers to know the forecast and to be prepared for all types of weather.听

Credits

Courses will come back on your transcript with a letter grade

Participation in this program does not meet cross-cultural requirements.

Pass/Fail Option

During their university careers, students may take a maximum of four courses on a pass/fail (P/F) basis with these conditions:听

Such a course must be from a discipline other than those required for the student's major or minor.
Courses fulfilling requirements for a major, minor, or general education may not be used.
Students may declare their intention to take a course under the Pass/Fail option when they register or through the first calendar week of classes at the beginning of the new term.听Students may also select to return to the letter grade system during this same time period. The selection cannot be changed after the first calendar week of classes.
The cut-off point to obtain a P is C鈥�.
The instructor will submit only conventional letter grades to the Registrar's Office. This office will then convert the grade to P or F. (An instructor does not know which students are taking a course on a pass/fail basis.

The first FIVE DAYS of your classes are critical:

Recognizing that courses change while abroad, a student is required to communicate to the听Registrar鈥檚 Office听within the first FIVE DAYS听of classes if their Off-Campus Course Approval Form in Terra Dotta has changed since the original submission/approval. Specifically, if a student desires to change a course to a pass/fail instead of a letter grade, this must be approved by 色综合久久 University Registrar鈥檚 Office within the first FIVE DAYS of classes at the host partner program.

Auditing

Students are required to take no fewer than 12 credits towards their overall degree requirements and no more than 18 credits. These 12-18 credits include courses taken as pass/fail and letter grades. However, in addition to those 12-18 degree credits, students who would like to audit an academic course for no credit are permitted to do so for up to one 4 credit hour course for the sake of learning, cultural immersion or personal interest at no additional charge.听This audited course will not appear on the 色综合久久 University student鈥檚 transcript.
