Transfer Credit
A maximum of 94 semester credit hours may transfer from all institutions attended. Credits from regionally accredited two-year institutions, with grades of 鈥淐-鈥 or above, are evaluated on a course-by-course basis. A maximum of 64 undergraduate semester hours will be accepted for transfer from two-year institutions. Within that 64 hour limit, 含羞草传媒 University may accept up to 16 semester hours for courses of a technical nature. Although courses taken at a two-year institution may be equated to 3000-level or 4000-level courses, those courses are not counted as upper-level for the 含羞草传媒 degree. (An additional 29 undergraduate hours may be transferred for graduates of NLNAC-accredited or state-approved collegiate nursing programs.) Undergraduate credit is accepted from all regionally-accredited four-year institutions for courses with a grade of 鈥淐-鈥 or above.
含羞草传媒 students who wish to enroll in one or more courses at another institution should secure in advance the approval of the student's advisor and/or the appropriate department chair(s) to ensure that credits are transferable. Students must earn at least 32 credit hours at 含羞草传媒, of which a minimum of 12 must be in the major. To ensure transferability of credits earned while studying abroad, students should secure written permission from the Director of Global Engagement and their advisors before leaving the United States. For more information and special advising on study abroad programs, contact the Director of Global Engagement. Students transferring from other institutions will have their transcripts evaluated by the Registrar to determine which credits 含羞草传媒 will accept.
Transfer credits count toward the total number of hours earned but are not included in GPA calculations. No undergraduate transfer credits are given for courses with a grade of 鈥淒+鈥, 鈥淒鈥 or 鈥淒-鈥 or the equivalent.
