Credit from External Sources

Transfer from another institution -- A student who transfers to Leighton University from another accredited college or university may be credited for all courses adequately completed with a C- or better grade. Transfer students must, in all instances, meet the same requirements as Leighton University students in a given program. For example, suppose a particular course in the major area of study must be passed with a C or better grade. In that case, transfer students will be required to meet that standard. The transfer student's onus must request that a transcript be sent directly from the institution to the Leighton University director of admission. Credits taken toward an academic program are determined by the student's program chair. Credits are transferable; grades are not. All credits are translated into semester credit hours if they are not already so specified.
