TRANSFERING CREDITS
Transfer credit will be transferred subject to the following considerations:
• The mission of the institution from which credits would be transferred,
• The comparability of the coursework with University of Minnesota coursework,
• The appropriateness of the coursework for meeting baccalaureate degree
requirements at the University of Minnesota, and
• Whether the institution is regionally accredited.
For more specific information about transferring credit to the U of M, please visit z.umn.edu/TransferTimeline.
Web-based course transfer system (Transferology)
Transferology is a free, web-based source for accurate, up-to-date information about
how your courses will transfer and apply to a degree program at the U of M. Transferology benefits include easy access to course descriptions, academic program information, course equivalency guides, planning guides, and student services. Start now by going to www.Transferology.com.
If you have questions about transfer courses or need help interpreting information from Transferology, we encourage you to contact the transfer counselor/advisor for your intended college. Our staff can help you understand degree requirements and explain additional transfer credit petition processes. We also want to help you plan ahead with courses to be on track for timely graduation and many of our programs have customized transfer guides. If your course does not appear to be reviewed for an equivalency on Transferology, you may submit a course for review at z.umn.edu/TESRequest. A syllabus or detailed course outline is required. You should receive an email response within four weeks.
Minnesota Transfer Curriculum
To simplify the transfer process, the University of Minnesota, Minnesota state universities, and Minnesota community colleges have developed a Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC). If you complete the MnTC or an associate of arts (AA) degree at a participating school and then transfer to the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, you have completed the core, the designated themes of liberal education, and first-year writing portion of the University’s liberal education requirements (you may still need to complete the writing intensive portion of the writing skills requirement). For more information on transfer credit and the liberal education requirements, please see https://z.umn.edu/UMNTransferGuidelines.
