Gaining Recognition for Your SU Courses

If you are trying to place into a more advanced course:

  1. Compare your SU syllabus to the one from the course you wish to place out of;
  2. If the topics covered in your Syracuse University syllabus are similar to the course you wish to place out of, then;
  3. Speak to the professor of the course you wish to place into and, if necessary, your academic advisor and/or a department administrator.

If you do not have a copy of your syllabus

  1. Print your syllabus off of your course page at supaonline.syr.edu;
  2. If they are unable to assist you, email help@supa.syr.edu;
  3. We can not guarantee that we will be able to retrieve the syllabus for you, but we will try as best we can.

If you want to use an SU course to fulfill a distribution or general education requirement, or a requirement for a major or minor sequence:

  1. Compare the course description for your SU course with the course descriptions of courses that fulfill the requirement on your campus;
  2. If the Syracuse University course description closely matches the description of a course that meets the requirement on your campus, speak to your academic advisor, a department administrator, or academic dean.

If you are having difficulty gaining the recognition you feel you deserve for an SU course

E-mail help@supa.syr.edu. In your message include:

your name;
Indicate you took a SUPAOnline course;
the course(s) for which you seek assistance in gaining recognition;
the type(s) of recognition you are seeking;
the actions you have taken to seek this recognition.


If you need a copy of your SU transcript:

Request a transcript be sent to the university or college you are attending. You can request a transcript by mailing or faxing the transcript request form.
