Transfer Students
Basic Information for Transfer Students
Academic credit will be given to courses that meet the
following criteria:
- Must be 100 level or higher
- Are courses that students have earned a C or above*
- Must not be a vocational class
- Are from an accredited college
Remember: Some courses transfer into Culver-Stockton that may not meet major requirements, but may fulfill Common Experience or elective requirements.
Additional Information:
*In order for classes to transfer into Culver-Stockton with a grade of a D, students must have earned an associate’s degree.
To make it even easier to transfer credits, Culver-Stockton College has course equivalency agreements with some nearby community colleges.
Academic course credit earned at regionally accredited institutions prior to enrollment at Culver-Stockton College (or earned in summer sessions) will be accepted if the work is relevant to the Culver-Stockton curriculum and does not repeat a course taken at Culver-Stockton. All coursework completed prior to enrollment at Culver-Stockton is evaluated by the registrar’s office in consultation with the academic departments to determine equivalency. Grades from the transfer institution do not become a part of the Culver-Stockton academic record, only the transfer credit.
Credits may be transferred if the grade is a C or higher and must apply toward the particular track of study the student has chosen to pursue. Credit will be accepted in transfer for grades of a D or higher if an associate’s degree has been completed.
All candidates for a degree from Culver-Stockton must earn at least 62 hours from a four-year college or institution. All candidates for a degree must earn at least 40 semester hours in upper-division courses (300-or-400 level courses) and at least 12 hours of upper-division courses in their major field. Thirty of the last 45 semester hours must be earned in residence at Culver-Stockton (with the possible exception of students transferring in the last year from an accredited professional school, e.g. clinical laboratory science, occupational therapy, etc.)
Transfer of credit is accepted for Advanced Placement, CLEP, dual credit coursework and Regents Tests with official score reports and transcripts. Advance approval is strongly recommended for courses transferred in after enrollment at Culver-Stockton.
