University of Missouri- St. Louis & St. Louis Community College
Dual Admissions Program
Statement of Intent to Participate
General Guidelines
Students who have earned at least 24 semester
hours of transferable college-level credit and meet
all other University of Missouri-St. Louis (UMSL)
transfer admission requirements and St. Louis
Community College (STLCC) admission
requirements are eligible to participate in the dual
admissions program (hereafter DAP).
First-time college students who enroll at STLCC and
meet UMSL’s first time college student admission
requirements are also eligible to participate in DAP
concurrent with their admission to STLCC.
By signing this statement of intent at the time of your
admission to UMSL and STLCC, you are indicating
your intention of participating in the UMSL Dual
Admissions Program. As a participant in the dual
admissions agreement, you are subject to the same
admission, matriculation, and degree requirements
governing all other UMSL and STLCC students.
This agreement stipulates admission to UMSL,
rather than to a particular college of major.
Admission to a major requires approval on an official
declaration of major form, a procedure necessary for
all UMSL students.
Once you have been admitted to the UMSL/STLCC
Dual Admissions Program, you are strongly
encouraged to attend a Dual Admissions Information
session given by an UMSL representative on the
STLCC campus.
Eligibility
To continue participation in the joint program, you
must be admissible to UMSL at all times,
maintaining a 2.00 (on a 4.00 scale) cumulative
GPA. Your eligibility for continued study at either
UMSL or STLCC will be governed by each
institution's policies on enrollment of probationary,
dismissed, and reentering students.
As a student participating in the Dual Admissions
program, you will be defined as a degree-seeking
student at UMSL and will be considered to be
converted to sole enrollment at UMSL once you
have completed and been awarded a transfer
associate degree.
Your subsequent progress toward the baccalaureate
degree will be governed solely by UMSL academic
standards. To graduate with Latin honors from
UMSL, a minimum of 56 graded hours must be
completed.
Academic Advising
Knowing the important role that academic advising
plays in a student's college success, counselors and
advisors at STLCC and academic advisors at UMSL
are available to assist in tailoring your program to
meet your long-term educational goals.
An integral counterpart to academic advising is the
degree audit report sent to you each semester by
UMSL. Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS) is a
statement of your progress toward completion of
UMSL's academic undergraduate education
requirements, specific to your major. It indicates how
your courses taken at STLCC will transfer to UMSL
in your intended major program.
If you change your major, you will need to notify your
academic counselor and/or advisor at STLCC and
your UMSL Transfer Coordinator. Once this change
is conveyed to UMSL's Office of the Registrar, your
records will be updated so that the requirements in
the DARS report reflect your new major. When the
change has been processed, you may request a
degree audit of all completed coursework.
Terms of Agreement
Should you become inadmissible to UMSL or
withdraw from STLCC, this agreement will be
canceled. At any time before completion of your
transfer associate degree, you may end the dual
admission agreement and officially transfer to UMSL
or any other institution of higher education under the
usual procedures.
This Statement of Intent to Participate form will also
serve as a Release of Information that authorizes
the institutions to share appropriate admission,
financial, academic and advising information
concerning the enrollment and performance of the
student.
