Transfer Credit Review Request
This form is to request a review of courses already transferred from other institutions with Arts and Sciences content for possible applicability to MAPS, Gen Ed, or general electives. This form may also be used to submit course syllabi for courses that have an SY iflg or NEED SYLLABUS notation under the Transfer Evaluation tab of your degree audit. Courses for Major or Minor requirements/ancillary requirements should be taken to your academic advisor for review by the department.
You may submit up to 6 courses at a time from a single institution using this online form. If you are requesting a review of courses from more than one institution, please use a new form for each institution.
Upon completion of the transfer work, it is the student's responsibility to request that the transfer institution mail an official transcript to: Admissions Processing, University of Colorado 552 UCB, Boulder, CO 80309. Once the work has transferred contact your advisor for necessary follow-up.
Note: Credits generally transfer as indicated on the final official transcript. Upper/lower division and number of quarter/semester credits completed are usually determined by the official transcript from the transfer institution. 1 quarter hour = .67 semester hour
Courses will be considered for transfer only if earned with grades of "C-" or better (or equivalent to 1.7 or better on a 4.0 scale) at an accredited university or college.
Though courses from other institutions may be fully transferable, use of transfer work in a degree program is subject to all limitations on course work specified in the Arts & Sciences section of the CU catalog and subject to final approval by the Dean's Office in consultation with faculty in the appropriate disciplines.
