Transfer credits – Enrolled Students

Marietta students who wish to take courses elsewhere for possible transfer of credit to Marietta College should secure advanced approval through the appropriate academic department and the Records Office. Additionally, pre-approval is required from the Registrar, in consultation with the academic advisor, for any transfer credits taken after completion of 58 credit hours (or matriculation for transfer students enrolling at junior or senior standing) and will be granted only for students who can demonstrate a need for external credits to remain on track for degree completion.

A grade of “C” or better is required for transfer. The credit hours transferred in will be shown as transfer credits on the student’s Marietta College transcript and can be used to satisfy the credit hour and applicable course requirement for graduation. However, the grades earned for transferred courses are not included in computing the student’s cumulative or program grade point average for the Marietta College degree. Transfer hours do not count as hours “in residence.” Students planning to transfer in credits are reminded of the College’s Residency Requirement for graduation.

Credit hours transferred in from an institution following a quarter or a unit program will be converted to semester hours. Details can be obtained from the Records Office.

Credit will not be granted for transfer credit completed by full-time Marietta College students in a Fall or Spring semester in which the course was available at Marietta College.
