ADMISSIONS

Transfer Students

 

East-West University welcomes students who wish to transfer from other schools, colleges and universities. Applicants must follow the regular admission procedure. Special attention must be given to deadlines for transcript evaluation and desired entrance dates. Transfer students should contact the Admissions Office at 312-939-0111 for further details.

 

East-West University considers granting transfer credit for the following:

 

* College level courses in which a student has earned a C grade or better taken at regionally accredited or state approved institutions of higher learning in the United States.

* All courses completed by a student at another institution to earn an accredited associate degree. * Foreign transcripts evaluated at the student’s expense by an outside agency designated by the University.

* Credits from independent study courses approved by the National University Extension Association.

* Proficiency examinations such as the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), DANTES, or an East-West University proficiency examination in program specific courses.

* Military service school courses.

* Assessment of knowledge gained from experience, independent study, or other non-traditional approaches to education in accordance with the University procedures.

 

Such transfer credits will be applied to the requirements of a degree program if students complete their residency requirement and the remaining coursework in their major and minor fields of study. Credit for transfer courses completed more than ten years before the time of admission may be denied. No credit for the course work completed by a student at another institution will be accepted if he/she has taken or takes the same or equivalent course at East-West University. Credit hours earned at colleges which operate on a semester basis will be multiplied by 1.5 in order to convert them to quarter hours.
