Frequent Questions and Procedures
Catalog Policies
Transfer credit procedures are governed by 成人APP精选Catalog policies. See for more information.
Transfer Credit Evaluation Process
All transfer courses are reviewed individually, on a case-by-case basis, without attachment to a student or degree program.
- Course descriptions are taken from your transfer school's catalog during the time of your attendance and are best matched to the current 成人APP精选curriculum.
- Courses taught at different levels than their potential 成人APP精选equivalent cannot be equated. Upper-division credit cannot be given for a class taken at the lower division, and lower-division credit cannot be given for a class taught at the upper division.
- At UAA, lower division is indicated by 100 and 200-level courses, and upper division is 300 and 400-level courses. Numbering systems across the U.S. vary widely in how level is indicated.
- Transfer courses must have been taught at the undergraduate level in order to transfer.
- Special topic courses, internships, and independent study classes will usually be brought in as elective credit due to the lack of consistent content.
- If you have taken a class that fulfills a degree requirement as a topical class, ask your academic advisor if the petition process is an option.
Transferred Courses with Partial Credit
- Courses that differ from equivalent 成人APP精选courses by less than 1 credit (for example 2.668) are equated to 成人APP精选courses and meet 成人APP精选course requirements without requiring a petition.
- To complete credit requirements greater than 1 credit, you can either take another 成人APP精选class or pursue an academic petition.
- You are still required to complete the total number of credits required for your GERs and degree, as these totals are never rounded up and cannot be petitioned.
Non-institutionally Accredited Institutions
If you have taken coursework that appears to otherwise be equivalent to a 成人APP精选course, contact your academic advisor to discuss the possibility of pursuing the academic petition process.
