Successful Credit Transfer

To ensure a smooth transfer of your dual enrollment credits, follow these best practices:

1. Keep Your Course Materials
   Hold on to your syllabi, assignments, and course descriptions. Some colleges may request them to evaluate course equivalency.
2. Request an Official Transcript
   After completing your course(s), order an official transcript from Immaculata University to send to your future college.
3. Check with the Receiving Institution Early
   Every college or university has its own credit transfer policies. Before enrolling in a course, contact the admissions or registrar’s office at the college you're planning to attend and ask:
   • Do you accept dual enrollment credits?
   • Are there any limits to the number of transferable credits?
   • Will this course fulfill general education, elective, or major requirements?
4. Focus on General Education Courses
   Introductory courses (like English Composition, Psychology, Sociology, Statistics, and Spanish) are often the most transferable because they align with most college general education requirements.
5. Maintain Strong Grades
   Most colleges require a grade of C or higher to consider credits for transfer. Some selective institutions may require a B or better.
