Credit Transfers

TRANSFERRING COURSES TAKEN AT OTHER INSTITUTIONS

Students desiring to pursue summer course work or additional work at another institution must secure written approval from their graduate program director prior to beginning the work in order for the credits to transfer into York College.

In order to receive transfer credit from courses at other institutions, a student must receive a grade of "B" or better. Credit hours for these courses may be transferred but grades and quality points will not transfer.

 

TRANSFER CREDIT POLICIES

Credits earned by a degree candidate student at another accredited graduate institution may be accepted by transfer in partial fulfillment of the graduate degree requirements. The following conditions for the transfer of these credits apply:

1. Official graduate transcripts from another institution must be submitted at the time of application. Transfer credits will be evaluated by the master’s program of which the student is admitted. Only courses where a grade of "B" or better is earned will be eligible for transfer.

2. Students may transfer no more than 9 credits of the 500-level or above courses into the Master of Education which have been taken within the past ten (10) years.

3. Transfer credits honored from other institutions will typically be only those courses which are considered comparable to the core courses contained in the York College of Pennsylvania master’s programs.

4. Current York College graduate students who desire to take courses at another institution must secure prior approval. Forms are available from the program office.

5. Transfer credits will be added to the York College transcript after a student has successfully completed 12, core-level credits in a master’s program at York College. The transfer credits will carry no grades or quality points; thus, these credits will not be used in calculating the student’s grade point average.
