For transfer students the General AUCA Policy is applied.

Transferring Credit from Another Institution

Course Eligibility

The Mathematics Department will approve a course for transfer credit only if it is offered by a mathematics or statistics department and is highly comparable in both content and level to a course offered by the Applied Mathematics Department for academic credit toward graduation.

Courses are not eligible for transfer credit if any of the following are true:

  • The course is taught in a high school to high school students (even if the college provides a transcript).
  • The course is used to satisfy high school graduation requirements.
  • The course is labeled “college algebra” or “pre-calculus.”

Distance Learning Courses

Credit will not be given for distance learning courses. Students are strongly advised to investigate these policies before taking a distance-learning course to be sure credit can be applied to the requirement that needs to be satisfied.

Student Procedure for Requesting Transfer Credit

Submit information about the course including at least a detailed course description or outline of topics covered and the textbook used for the course. A faculty member will review your request and contact you with a decision.

 

If the course is approved:

  • Arts & Sciences and Software Engineering students: Attach the email approval to a transfer credit.   Return the signed form to your university office.
