Transferring credits

  • Credit towards graduation from Saint Joseph’s College is granted for courses taken at accredited institutions with a grade of 2.0 or above on a 4.0 scale, if those courses are deemed both comparable to a course at the College and relevant to the student’s proposed program of study at the College. Other appropriate college level work with a grade of 2.0 or better will be transferred to the Saint Joseph’s College transcript, but they will not count toward a degree program at the College.
  • Credit for course work taken at non-accredited institutions may be granted on a provisional basis. Transfer credit is awarded by the Registrar in collaboration with individual academic departments. Transfer applicants will receive an official evaluation of their post-secondary course work after acceptance to a degree program. Students must complete a minimum of 32 credits at Saint Joseph’s College in order to meet degree requirements.
  • All questions regarding the transfer credit and evaluation process can be directed to Kevin Paquette, Director of Academic Records, at 207-893-7797.
