Transfer of Credit Completed at another Institution

In addition to the university-wide requirements, the following criteria apply to non-institutional graduate transfer credit in the Graduate School of Business and Leadership:

• A maximum of nine semester hours may be transferred
• Credit earned more than six calendar years before graduate admission is not transferable
• A “Pass” grade for a completed pass/fail graduate course is acceptable. A letter is required from the Registrar of the institution where the course was taken verifying that the grade is equivalent to at least a "B" (3.0 on a scale of 4.0)
• Students may transfer credit hours once admitted into a program

Specific graduate programs may have additional transfer credit requirements. See programs for details.

Exceptions to these rules may be appealed to the Admissions and Academic Standards Council of the Graduate School of Business and Leadership. Petitions must be presented to the Council by the student's advisor. 

Note: NLU credit completed under a different program is subject to Application of Academic Credit Toward Multiple Programs Policy.
