A maximum of six credits of graduate work...
from an approved and accredited college or university as long as they meet all of the requirements identified in the University-wide Transfer Credits section of the Graduate Bulletin and the specific criteria below. The Dean of Graduate Studies and Continued Learning will make the final determination regarding transfer credits and whether they will count as elective credits or qualify to replace required courses. In order for courses to count as electives, they must (in general) meet the academic intent of the student’s masters program or be aligned to their respective professional assignment. Each transfer request is handled on a case-by-case basis and the student may be asked to produce a course syllabus and or a letter justifying his/her request.
A Pre-Approval to Transfer Graduate Credits form, to be used by currently matriculated Wilkes students wishing to enroll in a graduate course at another college or university, and a Permission to Transfer Graduate Credits form, to be used for transfer of graduate courses already completed elsewhere prior to enrolling at Wilkes, are available. Adobe Acrobat Reader is needed to see and print these forms. A free version of the Reader can be downloaded from the company's website.
Permission to Transfer Graduate Credits for previous graduate academic work...
from another college must have been completed within six years prior to the date of your admission to Wilkes and must have a grade of B or better; pass/fail grades are not transferrable unless the "Pass" can be substantiated in writing as a grade by the former institution.
Currently enrolled Wilkes students who want to take a graduate course at...
another institution while matriculating at Wilkes and transfer these credits toward their Wilkes MS degree must complete a Pre-Approval Form before enrolling in a course at another institution.
If a student is transferring credits to Wilkes to complete the master's degree...
the student cannot be approved for graduation until all transfer credits are approved by the department, an "official" transcript has been received at Wilkes from the institution granting the credit, and the approved transfer credits are posted to your Wilkes University transcript. All paperwork must be received before each semester's Wilkes graduation clearance deadline.
