Evaluation of Transfer Credit
As part of the admissions process, the Office of the Registrar conducts a transfer of credit evaluation. All applicants to the University are required to provide an official transcript from each of the institutions they have attended, including their high school. Documents should be sent directly from the registrar at the awarding institution to the registrar at WTU.
Students with foreign credentials are further required to provide a translation of the transcript (if relevant) and a Course by Course Credential Evaluation prepared by an approved agency. Credential evaluations will only be accepted from agencies that are members of one of the following associations:
- Association of International Credential Evaluators (AICE)
- National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES)
Based on the documentation provided, the registrar identifies credits that are transferrable. The transfer of courses into the major will be at the discretion of the registrar in consultation with the Dean and/or the Chief Academic Officer.
Currently, WTU only transfers credit from courses in which a student has a passing grade.
