Graduate Transfer Credit Policy

Students may transfer a maximum number of six semester graduate credits appropriate to the program, earned from a regionally accredited college or university, toward completion of their St. Scholastica degree. Departments are looking for corresponding outcomes and other curricular requirements to the completed transfer courses and the courses within our curriculum.

Exceptions to this policy for individual students may be made by individual departments. The transfer credit must have been completed no more than seven years prior to the date the St. Scholastica degree is completed. Forms to request transfer of credits can be obtained online and submitted to the Office of Graduate Admissions. 

The College of St. Scholastica will consider transfer credits from students who:

  • Submit a Graduate Credit Transfer Application form.
  • Submit an official transcript sent directly from the regionally accredited institution.
  • Submit the course syllabus, catalog, or other pertinent descriptive information to determine equivalency of course content.
  • Have earned a course grade of 3.0 or better.
  • Completed the course not more than seven years prior to graduating from the St. Scholastica program.

Degree-seeking students planning to enroll in courses at another institution with the intent to transfer the credits to The College of St. Scholastica will need to send a written request and supporting course documentation to the program director prior to enrolling in the course. Written approval will be provided if the course is acceptable for transfer.
