Transfer Credit

An AUA student may petition to transfer to AUA up to 4 credits for a course completed at another recognized institution of higher learning, subject to the following conditions:

• That the student earned a passing grade in the course for which transfer credit is requested;
• That the student submits an official transcript from the institution at which the credit was earned, showing the grade and number of units awarded for the course in question; and
• That the student provides evidence that the credits s/he is requesting to transfer to AUA will not be utilized to fulfill a program or degree requirement at another institution.

An applicant from another university who wishes to transfer his/her earned credits towards an AUA degree may be allowed to transfer one course with the approval of the Dean of the College. Furthermore, the Dean may allow more credits based on the results of waiver examinations given by the department to the applicant.
