Transfer Credit Approval

Matriculated students who plan to take courses at other institutions must obtain prior approval by filling out a Transfer Credit Approval Form and submitting it to the Registrar's Office with the course descriptions attached, in order to apply this course work toward the degree requirements of the University.
All English, Mathematics, Business, and Biology courses need prior approval from the respective departments before you return the form to the Registrar's Office.
Students must have a minimum GPA of 2.0 before any courses will be transferred in.
A maximum of 90 credits from other four-year institutions, including no more than 63 cresits from the two-year colleges can be applied toward degree requirements at this University. Students should also be prepared to provide catalogs from the colleges they have previously attended.
Once you submit the form it will be either approved or rejected and you will receive a copy of the form in the mail.
If the transfer course is approved, the student should send a copy of their transcript from the other university with the graded course to the Registrar's Office to be added to their SCSU transcript.
When waiting for a course to be added to your transcript, please check your unofficial transcript on using Banner Self-Service. Once a course is added to your transcript it shows up on the web immediately.
