Transferring Credits

Absolutely! Aultman College welcomes transfer students and evaluates previously earned college credits for all degree programs. Most of our students come in with some form of credit from another institution.

Start by checking our Transfer Equivalency Guide for common courses from local colleges. For the most accurate evaluation, submit your transcripts for an Unofficial Transfer Credit Evaluation.

Yes:

• Math and science courses: Grade B (3.0) or higher, completed within 7 years
• All other courses: Grade C (2.0) or higher
• Courses must meet or exceed the semester credit-hour requirement at Aultman College

Nursing and radiography courses are evaluated individually:

• Must have a grade of C (2.0) or higher
• Must be completed within 3 years
• Skills validation testing may be required
• Transfer credit may grant advanced standing in the nursing program

This is called the residency requirement:

• Associate degree: 41 credit hours
• Bachelor’s degree: 80 credit hours
• BSN Completion Program: 38 credit hours of nursing + general education requirements, with a maximum of 82 transfer credits

No. Transfer credit grades are listed on your transcript but do not calculate into your GPA.

You can submit a Transfer Credit Appeal Form with course syllabus/syllabi to the Registrar. The division dean(s) and faculty will review your request, and you’ll receive a decision within about two weeks. Appeals must be submitted two weeks before the end of your first semester.

Advanced Standing determines credit for previous nursing courses:

• Submit official transcripts to Admissions
• Registrar evaluates credits using the transfer equivalency list
• Faculty review courses without direct matches
• Credits are entered into the Student Information System (SIS)
• A Statement of Student Transfer Courses is sent to the student
• Disagreements follow the appeal procedure above
