How Credits Transfer — The Inside Story

The amount and type of credit granted from previous work differs by college at Marquette University. We will mail an official credit evaluation with your admission decision letter. Some things to keep in mind about credit transfer:

• The maximum number of transferable credits from two-year colleges may not exceed one-half the number of semester hours required of graduation for a degree program. With this in mind, this sets the limit at a range of 64-67 credits.



• The final 30 credits must be completed at Marquette. Individual colleges may also impose a minimum number of credits that must be completed within an academic major at Marquette, usually around 15 credits.



• Most associate degree credits transfer.



• Any course completed at a regionally accredited university with a grade of "C" or better will be considered for transfer credit regardless of the method of delivery.
  
  
• Trade school, job training, military experience, physical education or continuing education courses typically do not transfer.



• Credits may be transferred only for courses completed with a grade of "C" or higher.



• A preliminary, unofficial credit evaluation can be conducted by using our online credit evaluator.
