TRANSFERRING CREDITS

TRANSFER SCHOLARSHIPS

Perhaps the most stressful part of transferring is the transfer credit evaluation. At Albertus Magnus College, we strive to make the process as simple and straight forward as possible. Below is an overview of the College’s transfer credit policy.

The Transfer Scholarships are offered to students who are transferring to Albertus Magnus College from a regionally accredited college or university with a minimum of 30 transferable credits.

The College operates on rolling admission, so there is no deadline.

Courses completed with a minimum of C or its equivalent at fully accredited institutions are transferable for all collegiate-level courses.

Both the letter grade and the honor points are transferable and are calculated in the cumulative G.P.A. These courses may be used as requirements or as elective courses in the specific degree program selected by the student.

A maximum of 90 credits is transferable from an accredited four-year college for work done satisfactorily (C or better). A maximum of 64 credits is transferable from junior and community colleges. B.F.A. students may transfer an additional 9 credits.

A student must earn at least 12 credit hours in upper-level courses in the major area at Albertus Magnus College. These 12 credits shall be chosen in consultation with the Department Chair, and may exclude credits earned in practical training or internships.

The Office of Admission will provide all students with an unofficial credit evaluation at the time of admission.

The Office of the Registrar has the final say in all matters relating to transfer credits.
