Transfer Information

Transfer Evaluation

Only course work earned at the institution issuing the official transcript will be evaluated. Courses will be considered for transfer if they meet the following criteria.

  1. Send official transcripts from all previously attended colleges to Admissions department.
  2. Registrar’s Office evaluates official transcripts for potential transfer credits.
  3. Students will be notified of their evaluation via their Dunwoody email address.

Students may be asked to provide a syllabus listing the course description and competencies of coursework.
