As we get closer to the end of the semester, make sure you are developing plans to meet deadlines and requirements. Planning will allow you the time to participate in other things that come up at the end of the semester without feeling overwhelmed.

Review the information below to find updates about pre-enrollment.You can also sign up for advising appointments through the Dyson Launchpad. We will be sending additional updates about advising drop-in hours soon.

Lastly, if you are struggling in a course and would like to discuss your options, please reach out to Dyson_OSS@Cornell.edu.

This Friday, we will be hosting the Dyson Awards Ceremony, honoring faculty, staff, and students for their accomplishments in the past year. Please RSVP to join us to celebrate!

Hope you have a great week ahead!

DYSON TRANSFER CREDIT POLICY – UPDATE
Applicable for all Dyson Students
Specific details of the Dyson Transfer Credit Policy:

  • Students who matriculate to Cornell as first-year students may transfer up to 2-courses toward the Dyson core requirements, limited to the following: microeconomics, macroeconomics, calculus, statistics, or business law.
  • Students who matriculate to Cornell as transfer students are not restricted to 2 courses toward the Dyson core requirements at the time of transfer. However, if the 2-course limit is reached or exceeded at the time of transfer, students will not be permitted to take additional courses for transfer toward the Dyson core requirements.

Dyson Core courses are listed within the yellow area of the Degree Checklists including Grand Challenges, Quantitative Methods, and Applied Economics.

Keep in mind that all off-campus courses must be pre-approved through the Off-Campus Course Approval form found on the Dyson Launchpad. Students only need to complete a petition form if they are requesting to take a Core course aside from microeconomics, macroeconomics, calculus, statistics, or business law.

This update to the Dyson Transfer Credit Policy was voted on by the faculty and will become effective May 19th, 2024.
