Visiting Students

If you're a graduate business student in good academic standing at another AACSB-accredited institution, you can take a course in the Sawyer Business School and transfer the credit to your university.

If the Suffolk course you select indicates a prerequisite, you must demonstrate via transcripts that you meet the prerequisite. You can take courses at our main campus in Boston. To determine if your current university or school is AACSB-accredited, please visit the Global Listing page on the AACSB website.

Visiting students must provide the following:

  • A letter (on official university letterhead) from your business school Dean indicating:
    • That you’re in good academic standing
    • The specific Suffolk Business School course(s) you will enroll in
    • That the indicated course(s) will transfer to your home program
  • Copies of your graduate transcripts. Unofficial transcripts are acceptable, but official transcripts are highly recommended.

Visiting student's instructions:

  • Complete our Visiting Student Form, uploading your transcripts and letter from your dean. 
  • Once your application has been approved, you will be contacted by a member of the Office of Graduate Admission, and issued a student identification number.
  • After the identification number has been issued, you will be instructed to contact Student Account Services at 617-573-8430 to make a payment. Payment is required in full at the time of registration.
  • Once payment has been submitted, please contact the University Registrar's Office to complete the course registration process at 617-573-8430, or by email.
