The acceptance of transfer credits between institutions is at the discretion of the receiving college or university. In order to receive a transfer credit evaluation at Patten University, you must send official transcripts to the Registrar. You will need to contact your previous school(s) and request that they send official transcripts to Patten University. Campus students must have their transcripts in prior to acceptance. Online students must have transcripts in within 30 days of enrollment.
Once your official transcripts are received, the Registrar will determine which of your prior degrees and coursework can be accepted for credit at Patten University. This review determines the remaining coursework to complete the desired program of study.
Course content and instructional quality varies across institutions. For online programs, the University does not consider grade points for work completed at other colleges or universities. Therefore, transfer credit neither raises nor lowers a student's grade point average. Only grades of C or higher will be considered for undergraduate credit and B or higher for graduate credit. In addition, the University has established the following limits on the maximum credits that are allowed for transfer into the degree programs.
Maximum Transfer Credits that May Be Awarded from All Sources
Associateâs Degree . . . . . . . . . . . . up to 45 credits (15 courses)*
Bachelorâs Degree . . . . . . . . . . . . . up to 90 credits (30 courses)*
Masterâs Degree . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .up to 6 credits (2 courses)**
* For Associateâs and Bachelorâs degrees, transfer credit may be awarded through a combination of transfer and/or credit by examination.
** For Masterâs degrees, credit by examination does not apply.
