The Office of Admission, in conjunction with faculty, evaluates courses submitted for transfer credit according to several factors.  These include the previous school’s accreditation, the content, level, and age of the course, and whether the credits are appropriate to an Indiana University Southeast degree program.  Only courses in which a grade of C or higher is earned will transfer.  Transfer credit may count toward meeting the requirements for a degree, but it will not count toward the IU Southeast grade point average.  The Office of Admission makes an initial determination regarding the transferability and equivalency of courses submitted for transfer. Individual schools and departments at Indiana University Southeast determine how transferred credits will apply toward degree requirements. 

Course equivalencies are maintained in transfer guides, program articulations, historical data, Indiana’s Core Transfer Library and u.select. IU Southeast also works to ensure students are made aware of how their credits will transfer by advising students at the community college level or pre-transfer level on a regular basis.

Veterans may earn college credit for educational experiences in the armed services.  A certified DD Form 295 and/or DD Form 214, and/or transcripts from the Army/American Council on Education Registry Transcript Services (AARTS) or Sailor/Marine American Council on Education (SMART) transcript should be submitted with the application materials for consideration. 

Credits earned while in high school (dual credit) will be evaluated in the same manner as transfer credit. Students are required to disclose they have taken such courses on their application and are required to submit official transcripts of all work to the admissions office
