Academic Credit Transfer
Academic credit transfer is the process of recognizing and applying coursework or credits earned at one educational institution toward degree requirements at another. It allows students to avoid repeating courses and to progress more efficiently through their academic program. When transferring, the new institution evaluates the coursework's relevance and comparability to their own curriculum to determine which credits can be accepted. This process facilitates student mobility, supports flexibility in education pathways, and helps make higher education more accessible across different colleges and universities.
