Transfer Credit Policy:
Students may apply a maximum of 16 transfer credits toward a Willamette degree. Six quarter hours or four
semester hours of transfer credit equal one Willamette credit. In most cases, courses taken at regionally
accredited colleges or universities will receive full credit if they are comparable to courses offered at Willamette,
or otherwise consistent with the goals and standards of Willamette's undergraduate degree program. Courses
with grades below C- (C minus) will not receive credit. Transfer courses are not used in computing the
Willamette University grade point average. To be eligible for transfer credit, college courses must be described in
the college catalog and recorded on the college transcript. Additionally, at least 15 degree credits must be earned
in residence at Willamette University, and at least 8 of the final 10 degree credits must be earned in residence or
in Willamette-sponsored off-campus study programs.
