Transfer Credits
The links to the right provide transfer course equivalencies for selected colleges and universities. Transfer course equivalencies are subject to change without notice and, therefore, should be used only as a general indicator of transfer credits. The official evaluation of student records will be conducted by 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.
Interpreting Transfer Course Information
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 rubric does not match with any 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 any requirement of a particular degree program is made by the department and the college of the major.
