Frequently Asked Questions

What courses do you accept for transfer credits?

Generally, transfer credit is granted for equivalent course work completed at institutions of higher education that are regionally accredited and in which a final grade of 鈥淐 minus鈥� or better is earned. There are some exceptions. For example, some Academic Programs have specific requirements for the granting of transfer credit for core professional courses (such as nursing courses or paralegal courses). If your transcript is from an institution that is not regionally accredited, it will be reviewed by the Center for Alternative Studies 鈥� however, your transcript should still be sent to the Office of the Registrar.

How does my transfer credit apply to my Program of Study?

When transfer credit is granted, it is given an 黑料吃瓜网 course code.
