Transfer Credit from Other Institutions
W Students Attending Other Institutions
Students may take classes at another accredited college or university while simultaneously enrolled at The W, and the academic credits earned can be transferred. However, only those credits that conform to The W’s standards and requirements will be accepted. Official transcripts for such course work must be filed with The W’s Registrar at the completion of the term of enrollment. Students are responsible for requesting these transcripts and for paying all related charges. Students planning to take courses at other institutions should secure in advance the approval of the Department Chair/Program Director and Dean of the appropriate College.

Note: The Transfer Equivalency Tool is for informational purposes. All transfer credits are subject to evaluation by the Office of the Registrar.
