Transfer Credits and Interpreting Transfer Course Designations
The links to the right provide transfer equivalencies for some courses offered at selected Louisiana community colleges. Please be aware that transfer course equivalencies are subject to change without notice. Therefore, the course equivalencies provided are unofficial. An official evaluation of student records will be conducted once a student has been admitted and official transcripts are on file in the Office of Records and Registration. Final decisions as to the applicability of transfer credits to a particular degree program are made by the department and the college of the major. Courses taken at institutions not accredited by the appropriate agencies will not be applicable to any degree program at Nicholls.
Courses that do not match Nicholls courses are given special designations. Course numbers that include question marks represent courses that do not transfer as specific Nicholls courses. For example, a mathematics course taken at another college or university may receive a MATH1?? designation. This means that the course content does not match sufficiently with any mathematics course offered at Nicholls. In this instance, the student will receive credit for a mathematics course at the 100 level. Likewise, a course receiving an XXXX designation indicates that the course is in a discipline not offered at Nicholls. An introductory anthropology course, for example, ANTH101, would receive an XXXX1?? designation since Nicholls does not offer any courses in anthropology. Again, the determination as to whether the courses described here will satisfy requirements of a particular degree program is made by the department and the college of the major.
