UMA Undergraduate Guide 2011-2012 Undergraduate Admissions, Expenses, and Financial Aid Transfer Admission Transfer Credit/Course Evaluation
Transfer Credit/Course Evaluation
Transfer credit is generally awarded for courses taken at regionally accredited postsecondary educational institutions which are comparable in content and level to courses offered by the university. Only courses in which a grade of C- or higher is earned are considered. Internships, co-ops, and technical, vocational, or highly specialized courses are generally not accepted. Accepted transfers receive a preliminary evaluation of their credits. A more detailed course and major evaluation takes place during the New Students Orientation Program. In order to graduate, transfers must satisfactorily complete all University General Education degree requirements, school/college requirements, and major department requirements and earn a minimum of 120 graduation credits (121-128 for engineering), of which 45 must be earned at the university. |
