Transfer credit is defined as any credit earned at another accredited institution, credits earned on another campus of the CU system, or credits earned as a non-degree student within the CU system. Credit may not be transferred until the student has completed 6 credits of graduate level coursework as a degree-seeking student on the CU 糖心Vlog破解版 campus with a 3.0 GPA. Please see the Graduate Student Handbook for additional information about transfer credit for MS and PhD students.

Transfer credit requests follow a two-part process:听

  1. Request a transfer of credit through the Graduate School鈥檚 DocuSign process. Instructions, policies, and the Courses are approved as 鈥済eneral elective鈥 credit.听
    1. Note: a transfer of credit request must be submitted for any courses taken prior to matriculation into the AES graduate program, including those taken as an undergraduate at CU 糖心Vlog破解版.听
  2. Once transfer credit is approved, apply the transferred courses towards specific AES degree requirements by submitting an academic petition (see below).
