The Transfer Credit Evaluation department will complete an official evaluation of your college credits once you’ve applied to the University. For specific questions, please direct inquiries to the Transfer Credit Evaluation department at transfer [at] ucumberlands.edu.��

Undergraduate Students can transfer up to 75 percent of their degree plan to Cumberlands. Students will generally receive credit for all college-level work in which a passing grade is earned, provided such credit is earned from an institution which is fully accredited by one of the six regional accrediting associations. Remedial courses are not transferable. Grades lower than ‘C’ will not be accepted in courses which apply toward the student’s major.

Graduate Students must have transfer credits approved in advance by the Department Chair or the Program Director before the course begins. A maximum of fifty percent (1/2) of a graduate degree's total required credit hours for graduation may be transferred from an accredited institution of higher learning or applied via credit by evaluation to an advanced degree program provided such credit meets the appropriate degree requirements of the �鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ.

Transfer students admitted with junior or senior standing must complete a minimum of one-third of the course requirements in the major or minor at the �鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ (CLEP and departmental bypass exams will not meet this requirement). Specific requirements for each major, or minor may vary with department policies. At least twenty-five percent of the total semester hours in any degree requirement must be completed at the �鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ. CLEP, Prior Learning Assessments (PLA) and departmental bypass exams will not meet this requirement.

�鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ reserves the right to evaluate and accept or reject college credit earned prior to high school graduation. This evaluation will be done course by course in consultation with the appropriate department.

To be eligible for admission to the �鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ, all undergraduate transfer students must not be currently on academic or social suspension and must be eligible to return to their previous institution.

Graduate students must have earned a minimum grade of “B” on all graduate work transferred, with grades of “B” being dependent upon the program. Grades of P will be accepted as passing for the purposes of transfer credit as long as the university the student is transferring credit from offers a key that relates the grade of “P” to a letter grade equivalent.

Only grades earned at �鶹��ýɫ��Ƭ will be used in calculating student grade point averages.
