Transferring Classes |
|
Degree credits earned at other regionally accredited (as recognized by Murray State) American institutions of higher education may be transferred to Murray State and applied toward a degree. The Transfer Credit Practices report published by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers will be the reference used for determining an institution’s accreditation status. Determination of upper-level and lower-level credit is based on the course level at the sending institution. All work is converted to semester hours and a 4.00 grading scale. Murray State’s probation and repeat policies are applied as required. Transferred incomplete grades do not carry hours attempted (i.e. they do not affect the student’s grade point average.) There is no limit to the number of hours that may be transferred from a regionally accredited institution. However, it is important to remember that a certain number of hours must be completed at Murray State, and that courses taken at a two-year institution cannot be used to meet Murray State’s requirement for upper-level (junior or senior) courses. At least 20 of the last 32 semester hours required for graduation must be earned in residence at Murray State. The U.Select System allows you to see how your previous or current college classes transfer into Murray State University. Once you have created your personal account, you can create a transfer guide with equivalencies that will show you the classes you need to take at your current college in order to have a seamless transfer into a desired degree program at MSU.
