Transferring Credit while a Lindenwood Student

A student at Lindenwood who wishes to take courses at another college or university while pursuing a degree at Lindenwood must first obtain permission for the transfer of these courses from his or her academic advisor, the dean of the school in which that course resides, and the registrar. A Prior Approval form may be obtained from the Office of Academic Services. A student may be allowed to take a course from another school during a term in which the requested course is not offered at Lindenwood. Credits accepted in transfer do not affect the student’s grade point average at Lindenwood University.

Note: A student who has satisfied only three semester hours of a cluster with transfer credit must take the cluster. A three semester hour Special Topics course will be substituted for the transferred course. A student who has satisfied six semester hours of a cluster with transfer credit will be permitted to take a single three semester hour course at Lindenwood University or transfer the remaining three semester hours to Lindenwood to complete the cluster.
