The process for transferring credits varies depending on the college or university you are transferring from and to. Generally, you will need to request an official transcript from your previous school and submit it to your new school's admissions office. The new school will then evaluate your transcript and determine which credits will transfer.
The best way to determine which credits will transfer is to check with your new school's admissions office. They will have a transfer credit policy that outlines which credits are accepted and how they will be applied towards your degree. You can also use online tools or speak with an academic advisor to get an idea of which credits may transfer.
Yes, most universities accept transfer credits from community colleges. However, it is important to check with the university's transfer credit policy to ensure the credits will be accepted and applied towards your degree.
In most cases, only the credits will transfer and not the grades. This means that your GPA from your previous school will not transfer to your new school. However, some schools may consider your grades if you are applying for a competitive program or scholarship.
The number of credits that transfer and how they are applied towards your degree will impact your graduation timeline. If a large number of credits transfer and are applicable to your degree, you may be able to graduate earlier. However, if only a few credits transfer or they do not fulfill major or general education requirements, it may take longer to graduate.
