Quick Facts About Transfer Courses
- Transfer credits are subject to a two-stage evaluation process. First, credits are evaluated by the Office of the Registrar and appropriate faculty who decide if the courses are eligible for general transfer to the University of Arkansas. Second, the student’s college determines which of the transferable hours will satisfy degree program requirements. Meeting with your academic advisor is the best way to determine how/if your credits will transfer.
- Transfer students must submit official transcripts from each institution they attended. All transcripts should be submitted directly to the University of Arkansas Office of the Registrar.
- Only courses that are submitted on an official transcript will be evaluated for degree credit.
- To be considered for transfer, courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.
- Students must complete a minimum of 50% of all business courses in residency (meaning, at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville) and may not use transfer courses in their major.
- Appeals for transfer equivalencies may be made to the Office of the Registrar.
- Once admitted, you will meet with a Walton College academic advisor. Your advisor will assist you in understanding how your courses transfer and fit into your Walton degree.
