Albion College welcomes students and credits through the transfer process. Following are the guidelines and policies related to the transfer of credits to Albion College.
 
Only credits earned with comparable academic content and rigor will be considered for transfer.  The various departments of Albion College determine individual course equivalency and transferability as well as applicability towards majors and minors. When the coursework has been completed at an institution outside the United States, the institution must be an officially recognized tertiary institution. 

Final recognition and posting of transfer courses on the transfer student's academic record will follow receipt of an "official" transcript of course work sent directly from the previous institution(s) and the applicant's admission to the College. Transfer credit evaluations completed on your behalf prior to being admitted, and prior to review of a final, official transcript are tentative and are to be used for advising purposes only.

Course work assigned a passing grade equal to or above 2.00 (C or better) on a 4.00 scale may be recognized in transfer.   Transfer credits are recorded with a grade of T and are not included in grade point average computations. 

Students transferring from two-year institutions such as community or junior colleges may present a maximum of one-half the number of credits  or 16.0 units required for the bachelor's degree. International students who have attended officially recognized tertiary institutions may receive transfer credit for work completed. Albion College residency requirement states that your final 12 units towards your degree must be completed at Albion College.  Albion College courses are based on a unit system where 1.0 unit is equal to 4 semester hours or 6 quarter hours.  

Because institutions may change course descriptions, numbers or other designators without notice, the information in this data file reflects the most recent information available.
