Transfer Credit Policy
Credit is typically awarded to students who earn a C- or higher in 100 level or above course work from regionally accredited institutions. Developmental or basic course work is and will not be accepted. All academic courses with a passing grade (D- or higher) will transfer from Eastern, Southern or Western Connecticut State Universities. Pass/Fail courses are generally NOT eligible for transfer credit except for recreation/physical education courses from any institution and all courses from Connecticut State University institutions.
Associate Degree Recipients
Courses with grades of D+, D and D- are transferrable only if the student has earned an Associate’s Degree from a Connecticut State Community College or Charter Oak State College.
Continuing matriculated undergraduate CCSU students have the option to take courses at another institution and transfer the credits to Central Connecticut State University. However, students need approval to take a course at another institution before the course is taken. The permission ensures that the credit will be transferable back to CCSU and will determine the CCSU course equivalency. Please note, regardless of the number of credits transferred, a student must complete a minimum number of courses in residence (taken at CCSU) in the major, minor and overall. Review the degree requirements for detailed information. If you have any questions about the procedure, please contact the Registrar’s Office.
