20-21 Graduate Catalog

Evaluation of Transfer Credit Transcripts and Credentials

After students apply, the University will evaluate all graduate courses on official documents for acceptance as transfer credit and notify applicants of the credits accepted by the University. No courses/grades can be removed from the record once sent to TESU for evaluation. Applicants will receive an Academic Evaluation showing how accepted credits will apply toward their degree and what credits are needed to complete the degree program. If there is any doubt as to the content of a particular course, applicants will be asked to submit additional information such as a course syllabus or outline.

Transfer credit meeting the criteria may be used to meet core and elective graduate program requirements. The grade received for a transfer course must be a B or better. When the grade received is P for Pass or CR for Credit, the sending institution must equate it to a B or better. Students may transfer up to 12 credits. Courses taken for transfer credit after admittance to the program require prior approval of the dean of the School in which the student is enrolled. Transferred graduate credits that were earned seven or more years prior to the student’s enrollment date may not be applied to the degree without permission of the appropriate School dean.
