Transient students should declare their major as PI (personal interest). This will exempt them from the placement test. In order to ensure that the course you wish to take at Sinclair is transferable to your home school, you must check with an academic advisor at your home school. You are responsible for meeting all pre-requisites. If you believe you have the pre-requisite requirements at your home school you will need to provide proof of that to an academic counselor. Please bring that to Sinclair Central.
