Frequently Asked Questions
Huntington University accepts two types of transfer credits:
- Direct Equivalency: The course is equivalent to a specific course at HU and fulfills specific coursework requirements for admission and/or your plan of study
- Undistributed Credit: The course does not match a specific course for the degree of interest but will be brought in as a general credit that can be used to satisfy elective requirements in your program.
Contact your transfer admissions counselor to request an official transcript evaluation. The registrar's office will evaluate your transcript(s) to determine which of the classes you’ve taken can qualify for credit at HU and send the results via email. If the class was taught at a regionally accredited institution and you earned a C- or better, it is eligible for consideration. Please note:
- Some degree programs may have additional requirements.
- HU considers nationally accredited institutions on a case-by-case basis.
