2026-2027 Graduate Catalog

Accommodation of Transfer Credits

A maximum of 6 hours of transfer credit may be applied toward a master's degree, contingent on approval from the applicable program director and the Associate Provost for Graduate Studies.

The Registrar’s Office, in consultation with the program director, determines which courses can be considered for graduate credit. To be accepted for graduate credit, a transfer course must:

  1. Have been taken at an accredited institution with state approval for graduate courses;
  2. Be designated as a graduate course at that institution;
  3. Be comparable to a course taught at Marietta College; and
  4. Have a grade of “B” or better.

Credit hours transferred in from an institution following a quarter or a unit system will be converted to semester hours.
