Accredited School Requirements

Admission to matriculated programs, and transfer credit approval, requires previously earned coursework to have been earned from an institution accredited by a USDE (U.S. Department of Education) or CHEA (Council for Higher Education Accreditation) approved accrediting agency.

Transfer credit from institutions meeting accreditation requirements shall be approved upon review of course content and alignment with learning outcomes.

Nursing degrees must also be accredited through an approved professional agency, such as the Commission of Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), or Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN).

In general, courses from degree-granting colleges and Universities can be reviewed for transfer. Coursework from for-profit online learning platforms will not be accepted for transfer credit.
