Transferology + Transfer Evaluation System

Benedictine University accepts transfer course credit from regionally accredited colleges and universities if the courses are deemed comparable in scope and rigor to courses offered at Benedictine University. Other transfer courses that are commonly regarded as a study in the liberal arts are evaluated on an individual basis. Credit identified as developmental or pre-college in level of study may be used as a basis for placement and advising purposes, but will not be accepted as transfer credit.
To be accepted in the major or minor area, or in Basic Skills, courses must have a grade of “C” or better. A grade of “D” or better is required in all other areas, except where program requirements specify otherwise. Grades earned at other schools are used to determine transferability of credit, but are not included in the Benedictine University cumulative GPA. Students cannot earn duplicate credit for repeated courses.
Acceptance of transfer credit to be applied to the major or minor area is determined by the appropriate academic department chair or program director. Requirements designated mission specific or institutionally unique must be taken at Benedictine University. Courses taken prior to specific dates may be unacceptable as transfer credit because of substantial subsequent developments.
Benedictine University is a participant in the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI), a statewide agreement that allows transfer of completed Illinois-transferable General Education Core Curriculum courses, and selected major courses between participating institutions.
Credit for nontraditional experiences, including military education, will be considered based upon American Council on Education recommendations. Military education credit is considered as an external credit program.
Credit from international institutions must be evaluated by Educational Perspectives, Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc., or World Education Services before submitting to Benedictine University for review. Credit is subject to Benedictine University’s transfer credit evaluation criteria.
