		<title>Transferring Credits</title>
		<link>http://ask.buffalostate.edu/index.php?showtopic=6595</link>
		<description><![CDATA[I came across these tools that will show you what your credits will transfer to Buff State as on the buffalostate.edu website... I wish I had known about them a long time ago!  So, I thought I would share them with everyone  <img src="http://ask.buffalostate.edu/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <br /><br />There is an "Equivalence Navigator" that can be found here: <a href="https://audit.buffalostate.edu/TN1/" target="_blank">https://audit.buffalostate.edu/TN1/</a>.<br /><br /><blockquote>The directions for using the Equivalence Navigator are found on this page of the Buff State website: (http://www.buffalostate.edu/admissions/equivalencenavigator.xml.<br />	<blockquote><br />                1. Launch Transfer Equivalence Navigator<br /><br />	2. Select your institution in the "From" menu<br />	<br />	3. Drill down to the level that contains your course; place your cursor over the course<br />	<br />	4. If an equivalent course exists at Buffalo State, the island will flash<br />	<br />	5. For details, drill down on the highlighted island</blockquote><br />	</blockquote><br />There is also an equivalence calculator specifically for SUNY schools: <a href="http://www.suny.edu/student/cmpCreditEquiv/courseEquiv.cfm#results" target="_blank">http://www.suny.edu/student/cmpCreditEquiv...uiv.cfm#results</a>.<br />	<br />Let me know if you have any questions... I think these are great!]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Spring '10 Nondegree Student Registration]]></title>
		<link>http://ask.buffalostate.edu/index.php?showtopic=6587</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello, <br /><br />I recently submitted an application for non-degree status to Buffalo State. I was wondering where I could find information concerning registration dates, student ID, etc. <br /><br />Also, I've already completed my undergraduate degree and am just looking to finish my pre-requisites for medical school. Because I've taken some chemistry, biology, etc., will I need special permission to enroll in upper-level science courses? (i.e. submit college transcripts, etc?)<br /><br />Thanks for your help! <img src="http://ask.buffalostate.edu/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[spring '10 financial aid]]></title>
		<link>http://ask.buffalostate.edu/index.php?showtopic=6589</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Just wondering what the general time line is going to be like for the disbersment of financial aid this coming semester. The financial aid office encountered many obstacles with my loans and things this past semester and I have heard from many that both semesters last year it was really difficult to obtain aid in a timely fashion because of the financial aid office having to switch to a new Banner system or something. Are all the kinks worked out? Just wondering how many extra hours I should be working so that I can avoid getting evicted if my financial aid isn't disbersed until the middle of the semester.]]></description>
