Acceptance of Transfer Credit

Transfer credit will be accepted for all successfully completed college-level courses completed in and after fall 2005 from Ohio state-assisted institutions of higher education. Students who successfully completed Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degrees prior to fall 2005 with a 2.0 or better overall grade point average would also receive credit for all college-level courses they have passed. (See Ohio Articulation and Transfer Policy, Definition of Passing Grade, Appendix E)

Following the evaluation of an official transcript from another institution, Rhodes State will provide the student with a statement of transfer credit applicability which will include the appeals process.  The process includes review of the course description, syllabus, and learning outcomes to determine a match with Rhodes State courses.  Responses should be issued within 30 days of the receipt of the transcript.

Pass/fail courses, credit by examination courses, experiential learning courses, and other nontraditional credit courses that meet these conditions will also be accepted and posted to the student record.  Other courses may be transferred in consultation with the Dean of the Division.  

Students are encouraged to examine their transfer evaluation and contact the Office of Transfer with any questions or concerns within 90 days of receiving their transfer evaluation.
