WILL MY CREDITS TRANSFER?

We generally review transfer credits from other institutions in which a student has earned a 2.0 GPA or higher.

Want to know how your credits will transfer over? Try our "Will my Credits Transfer?" tool here! Keep in mind, we’re still building this list, so even if you don’t see your course listed there, you can always request an unofficial credit evaluation before applying!

More information on unofficial credit evaluations

Upon request, King's College will perform a preliminary, unofficial evaluation of each student's transcript prior to application. By utilizing this service, a student can enter into the transfer process knowing which credits will be accepted. An official evaluation will be performed after an offer of admission is extended. King's will accept up to 60 credits in transfer; half of the major requirements need to be taken at King's. When possible, credits will be applied to major courses and Core requirements and then to elective credits. Only those courses with a C grade or better will be considered.
