Depending on your degree, our office may be able to utilize your transfer credits for the IDS Areas, Diversity Studies restricted electives, or Environmental Studies degree. We can only evaluate credits for admitted students. In most cases, out-of-state, international, and private institution transfer credits will be evaluated for equivalency. Students are required to submit course descriptions and or syllabi from the institution in the year they took the course. Petitions are reviewed by the Interdisciplinary Studies Director and may take up to 7-10 business days. Our office does not evaluate General Education and Foreign Language courses for equivalency—this is done through Academic Services.
If students are wanting to petition course(s) that serve as a prerequisite for others, we may refer the student to the department that teaches the course for an evaluation. This is particularly true for math, anatomy, physiology, physics, biology, and chemistry courses.
