**COLLEGE CREDIT REGISTRATION**
Oceans can be taken for college credit as Stony Brook University's MAR 104-E: Oceanography. and Marine Ecology can be taken for college credit as Stony Brook University's MAR 101-E: Long Island Sound: Science and Use, respectively. These are three credit courses and cost $300 each (normal tuition is $1166.40, so this is quite a discount). In order to take either course for college credit, you must have a cumulative GPA of 2.40 or better. See Ms. Williams to see if you qualify. If for any reason you wish to withdrawal from the Stony Brook course, you must follow all of Stony Brook University's dates and procedures and the $300 is not refundable. Smithtown High School and Stony Brook University cannot guarantee that the college in which you enroll will accept these credits. Please check with any potential colleges prior to enrollment. Your grade for this course will become part of your permanent SUNY academic record.Registration is on line, however, you will need to print the Program Approval Form SUNY Stony Brook will send you, which will need my signature to allow you to actually be registered for the class. Even if you have done everything else online, your registration is NOT complete without my signature. Once you print the Program Approval Form, complete your part and submit it to me no later than the date provided in your Google Classroom in order for me to finish processing it. In addition, please bring in your payment receipt or forward the email receipt from Stony Brook so I have proof that your payment went through. I will deliver all of the signed forms to Stony Brook by the due date.

Despite what it says on Stony Brook's website, my deadline for you to complete your on line application and submit payment is the date provided by your teacher. I cannot guarantee time for processing your application if you hand it in late! Remember, I'm on field trips with other classes during this time of year, so don't wait until the last minute and chance being disappointed when I'm not in the building to help you!
Please see Ms. Williams with questions.
