Transfer students should be aware of these rules regarding transfer of credits:
• Only credits granted by schools accredited by regional accrediting associations will be considered for transfer to North Central.
• Credits, not grades, are transferred for "C" (2.0) or better courses. In most cases, courses will be accepted for equivalent North Central courses or elective credit.
• No evaluation of credit is made for a student who has received a two- or four-year degree from another institution, except for coursework that applies to the student’s declared program of study at North Central.
• Fractional credits shown in the student’s total credits to be transferred are not included in his/her North Central record.
• Military Service School credit may be awarded where such credit is applicable to the student’s declared program of study. Evaluations are consistent with the American Council on Education’s Guide to the Evaluation of Education Experiences in the Armed Forces recommendations. North Central allows up to 30 semester credits from Military Service Schools.
• North Central will recognize up to 15 credits for Advanced Placement (AP) and/ or College- Level Examination Program (CLEP), provided scores on the AP are three or higher and CLEP scores are 50 or above.
• North Central may recognize up to 30 semester credits in transfer from trade schools or apprenticeship programs certified by the Michigan Department of Education.
• No more than 45 semester credits from all external sources will be utilized in transfer by North Central toward a degree or certificate. Please note that 15 semester credit hours must be taken from North Central before a certificate, degree or MACRAO certification may be earned.
