Transfer Credits and Course Matching

Course Matching

Each and every course considered for transfer credit will be examined for compatibility with an equivalent course offered for the same program at WUST with respect to the following:
1. Course title, course description, and the number of credit hours, and/or
2. In extenuating cases, if and when the conditions in (1) above are not satisfied, the VP of Education could approve a course matching by considering the degree of similarity in content and learning objectives of the courses.

Transfer Credit by Exam

TC can be awarded for several advanced standing examinations based upon minimum score requirements established by WUST academic departments. Official transcripts from the testing agency must be sent to the Office of Admissions during the application process. Please find the transfer course map for each advanced standing exam below.

The College Board's College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) allows students from a wide range of ages and backgrounds to demonstrate their mastery of introductory college-level material and earn college credit. Students can earn credit for what they already know by getting qualifying scores on any of the 34 exams offered. To learn more, visit CLEP | College Board.

Transfer of Associate's Degree

Undergraduate students with a completed associate's degree from an accredited institution are considered having satisfied the twelve General Education courses required by the bachelor degree programs at WUST. Official transcripts must be sent from the college or university to the Office of Admissions during the application process.

NOTE: Students with an associate’s degree in the same discipline as the bachelor program they are admitted to are considered having satisfied the General Education requirements as well as eight (8) introductory courses specific to the program. Please find the transfer course map for each bachelor degree program below.
