Transfer Credit
A minimum course grade of C (2.00 on a 4.33 scale) or equivalent is required.
The maximum number of credit hours that can be awarded toward degree requirements as a combination of transfer credit and Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) is 30 credit hours for an Associate degree and 60 credit hours for a Bachelor’s degree.
Courses used to meet the requirements of a previously earned undergraduate or graduate degree will not be eligible for transfer credit.
Transfer credit will normally be granted for a course only where UCW offers a parallel or similar course with substantially the same content at a similar level. Specifically,
- lower level undergraduate courses (100-200) do not normally receive credit as upper level (300-400) undergraduate courses, and
- undergraduate courses do not receive credit as graduate courses.
For undergraduate programs, courses of appropriate academic content for which UCW does not offer a similar course may be considered for elective credit.
The full transfer credit policy is available here.
