University Restrictions Concerning Transfer Credit Recognition

Courses completed at non-public institutions that are not accredited by the major regional accrediting associations will not be credited to degree programs of the University; nor will credit be granted for courses that are unacceptable to the transfer institution for its own associate's or bachelor's programs or that are completed within post-secondary school diploma programs. Noncredit CEU courses, adult enrichment or refresher courses, and secondary school correspondence and home study courses also are not recognized for transfer credit. The University reserves the right to refuse recognition for courses that were taken more than ten years prior to the date when a student applies for transfer when, in the opinion of Department Chairpersons and Program Coordinators, the knowledge attained in such courses is deemed to be out of date and/or in need of verification. Competencies that a student has achieved through such courses, or by any other means, may be recognized for credit if verified by CLEP or departmental examinations.
