Transfer credit is awarded on a course-by course basis. Most university, college, or community college courses equal to corresponding Valpo courses are applied toward the general education requirement or as an elective credit.
Courses in a student's major may fulfill major requirements upon apporval of the appropriate college dean or department chairperson. The following lists some of the rules applicable to transfer of credit:
If transferring from a quarter system, three quarter hours usually equal 2 semester hours of credit. Courses comparable to those offered at Valparaiso University will be accepted for transfer with grades of "C-." Grades are not transferable; only credits transfer.
Credits earned more than 15 years ago are accepted toward graduation requirements on a provisional basis; you must then complete 30 semester hours at Valpo with a minimum 2.0 grade point average or better.
