How do I make the Dean's List?

Dean's List is awarded to full-time undergraduate students who have earned a 3.5 GPA or above in a term. The Dean's List is not granted to graduate students as there are discipline-specific criteria that must be met to achieve exemplary success in each program.

How do I obtain my official transcript?

All official transcripts can be obtained through the National Student Clearinghouse at getmytranscript.com

Can I get an unofficial transcript if I’m no longer an active Keuka College student?

No. Unofficial transcripts are generated from the KC Self Service for active students only. If you are no longer an active student, all transcripts can be ordered through the National Student Clearinghouse at www.getmytranscript.com.

Where can I do a Field Period® experience?

Because Field Period® is self-designed, the sky is the limit with where you choose to go. Accessible through the College's Portal, there are many resources to help students find Field Period® sites including a database of past experiences and through employer postings on our Career Management System, Handshake. Faculty, staff, and alumni also serve as valuable resources for finding sites, and many students rely on additional networks including friends, family, past supervisors, and community members as well.

What are the Field Period® assignments?

Prior to doing a Field Period® experience, students must submit a course proposal, which consists of a learning contract and a thank you letter, for faculty and site approval. The learning contract identifies their site, supervisor, and what they expect to do and learn from that experience. During the experience, students will keep a reflective journal. At the end of the experience, the student and site supervisor will be sent a Final Evaluation to complete and the student will be required to create a summary paper and put together a presentation that displays his/her learning through unique documentation.

I want to withdraw from the College. What do I have to do?

What is Field Period®?

Keuka College's Field Period® program is an annual, self-designed experience that gives students a chance to explore their interests. It can be an internship, observation, cultural experience, community service project, artistic endeavor, or spiritual-based exploration. Briefly stated, it is a chance for students to gain experiences in the fields that interest them for a short period of time.

Where do I buy books?

Books can be:

  • Purchased at the Keuka College Bookstore 
  • Rented at the Keuka College Bookstore
  • Purchased anywhere using the ISBN number.
How long is each Field Period® experience?

Field Period® is a 140-hour course. Students are required to complete at least 120 on-site hours towards each Field Period® experience and an additional 20-hours will be dedicated to the reflective assignments. Occupational Science students divide their Field Period® courses in half and therefore they complete at least 60-hours in two different settings for each three-credit Field Period®.
