Transfer Credit Equivalency

Current students must read the following before reviewing the course list:

1. Courses not on this list should be pre-approved before students enroll in the course to ensure transfer credit will be awarded. Students can email the course syllabus to [email protected] to have it reviewed for transfer credit approval.
2. Students must complete 50 percent of their degree requirements in-residence at UVA.
3. A grade of ‘C’ or higher is required in order to receive transfer credit for an approved course. Please note, grades do not transfer over and do not affect the student’s cumulative grade point average.
4. Students on a leave of absence may not transfer in credit without prior approval from the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Affairs.
5. Students cannot enroll in a transfer course during the regular academic year (fall and spring) without prior approval from the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Affairs.
6. Physics lab must be completed in-person/on-campus in order to receive lab credit for PHYS 1429 and/or PHYS 2419. Students who complete the Physics I or II lab online will not receive transfer credit for the lab portion. The physics lecture portion can be completed online.  
7. General policies concerning transfer credit can be found in the UNDERGRADUATE RECORD.
8. Current students must request an official transcript after the course is completed and a final grade is posted.  If the institution uses Parchment to send transcripts, please have the official transcript sent to the University of Virginia School of Engineering & Applied Science (must be entered as shown).  Otherwise, official electronic transcripts can be sent from the college or university to [email protected]. Official transcripts can also be mailed to the address below:
