Transfer Credit

Transfer credits are accepted from recognized, accredited colleges and universities.

Credits may be transferred if the grade is a C or higher, which will be determined upon transcript evaluation. However, if an accepted transfer student feels that he or she should be awarded credit from a previously attended institution, the student has the opportunity to request a petition for that course’s credit by completing a Transfer Credit Petition Form located in the Office of Transfer Student Relations in Tandy Hall, Room 116.
