The Office of Admissions evaluates credit from other institutions after the student's complete application and all official transcripts from each college and university attended have been received. Credit earned in colleges and universities accredited by regional accrediting associations is generally accepted; however, courses taken at the lower (1000- 2000) level cannot be given upper (3000-4000) level credit.

Students who are placed on probation or made ineligible to continue at the institution where they were previously enrolled, based on grades earned in coursework recorded on transcripts received
 after registration, will have the appropriate academic action applied immediately.

Transfer credit allowed by the Office of Admissions, in all cases, is subject to review by the dean of the appropriate school regarding its applicability toward a particular degree. Questions relating to the acceptance of credit toward a degree program and the length of time required for completion of degree requirements should be referred to the Office of Admissions.
