Procedures

The process of "CODOing" from one college/school to another involves completing required paperwork and visiting the advising office in both your "old" college/school and your "new" one to get official signatures. Here is a step-by-step sequence to follow:

  1. Contact the college/school you wish to CODO into for specific information about their requirements. You may also find this information at the Minimum Requirements Web page. Links to this site and the "Key Undergraduate Academic Advisors" Web page are to the left.

  2. Request CODO papers (Form 340) at the Registrar's office (Hovde Hall, Room 45) or via SSINFO (click on "Academic" and then "CODO Paper Request"). Note: CODO papers are only good during the semester in which they were requested.

  3. Pick up your CODO papers at the Registrar's office and fill out your name, Purdue ID number, and school information (item 1) on both copies of the CODO papers.

  4. Bring both copies of the CODO papers to your current school/college or advisor for their signature (item 2).

  5. Take both copies of the CODO papers to the advising office of your NEW school/college. An appointment may be required in most schools/colleges. If you meet the requirements of that school/college, an advisor will complete the forms in the following manner:

    • Review record and delete courses where appropriate

    • Calculate total number of hours for which credit toward graduation has been received

    • Establish correct classification

    • Complete items 3, 4, and 5 on the CODO papers

  6. SIGN YOUR NAME at the bottom of both copies (item 6) to indicate your approval of the CODO process and your understanding of how your credits will transfer.

  7. One copy of your CODO papers will be sent or carried to the Registrar's office for computer entry showing your Change Of Degree Objective.

  8. After your CODO papers are processed in the Office of the Registrar, you are officially in your new school.

NOTE:  CODOing cannot save a student from being placed on DROP status.
