Cross-Registration Options
Brown University
A limited number of Wheaton students may cross-register for Brown University courses in subjects or areas not covered in the Wheaton curriculum. A minimum GPA of 2.67 (B-) is required. Applications and details regarding eligibility and other limitations for Brown cross-registration are available in the Academic Advising Center. Both institutions must approve all applications.
SACHEM
The Southeastern Association for Cooperation in Higher Education in Massachusetts is a collaborative effort among nine local colleges that allows full-time students to enroll in a limited number of courses at other SACHEM institutions. Members of SACHEM are Bridgewater State College, Stonehill College, University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, Dean College, Cape Cod Community College, Bristol Community College and Massasoit Community College. Students may take courses for credit at any of the nine colleges with the approval of their faculty advisors and the Wheaton Registrar, providing that such courses are unavailable at Wheaton.
Boston Marine Studies Consortium
Wheaton students may enroll through the normal preregistration process in one of eight Marine Studies courses offered through the member schools of the Boston Marine Studies Consortium. Students may generally enroll in no more than two courses, generally one per semester. Eligible students must be enrolled as full-time students at Wheaton and, where appropriate, have the necessary prerequisite courses. Courses are taught at Brandeis University, Northeastern University and the New England Aquarium. Students must provide their own transportation. Students should direct questions to the advising center.
