Transfer College-Level Work from High School
General guidelines:
- A national accrediting body must accredit the transfer institution; consult the institution's catalog to confirm that it is accredited
- Only courses with a grade of C or better will be accepted in transfer (see exception for SESP post matriculation)
- Transfer credit accepted from another institution will be reflected on the Northwestern University transcript with a grade of "T", not the actual grade received at the other institution. The "T"grade will not be used in calculating the Northwestern GPA
- No transfer of credit for grade of P or S without special permission
- Credit for college-level course work completed prior to graduation from high school must be specifically approved (application form - PDF). The course must be a bona fide college course offered on a college campus and attended primarily by duly matriculated college students. It must not be part of the student's high school program, nor fulfill any requirements for the high school diploma
