Transfer Your Credits to º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø

The º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø welcomes students with college credits from other institutions. Transfer students must submit official transcripts to the Office of the Registrar for evaluation.

Accreditation is an external evaluation process by an independent agency/body which recognizes institutions for meeting certain established educational standards. The º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø accepts transfer credits from the following accrediting bodies:

  • Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) Western Association of Schools and Colleges
  • Higher Learning Commission (HLC)
  • Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSCHE)
  • New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NECHE)
  • Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU)
  • Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC)
  • WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC)

Transfer students who have earned an Associate of Arts degree or an Associate of Science degree (or higher) from an institution accredited by one of the bodies above, or who have completed the general education core at a public Idaho institution will be considered core certified and will not be required to take additional non-program specific, lower division, general education core courses. Transfer students must provide official transcripts that show the degree earned or the completion of general education core from the transferring institution.

The credits that students have earned are evaluated based on course content, department input, and Idaho's official guidelines. Students can check which credits º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø will accept on the site.

Transfer students must complete at least 20% of degree credits at º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø in order to graduate from the º£½Ç³Ô¹ÏÍø.

Courses transferred from a school on the quarter system will be converted to semester units.
