Credit for Prior Learning
We value the learning that you’ve already acquired. We know that retaking courses costs you time and money. Our generous transfer credit policy allows you to apply previously earned credit and learning toward your degree program. Our goal is to make sure we maximize your prior learning so you can finish what you started without starting over.
You need to know what transfers and how it transfers, so you can focus on what you need to do to complete your degree. Don’t guess. Know. Request a free transfer evaluation.
