Transfer Credit
- Frequently Asked Questions(Links to an external site.): Some general topics, policies, and procedures are explained here.
- TES(Links to an external site.): UNCG’s Transfer Evaluation System lets you view the databases Transfer Articulation Services has created based upon previously made transfer credit evaluation decisions. Bear in mind that the lists you find there are not always comprehensive and are subject to change upon receipt of official transcripts that report different course information. Before classes start, look at TES to answer questions about how courses from the previous institutions you attended have transferred to UNCG. After classes start, TES may answer transfer credit questions if considering attending another institution while you’re a Spartan.
- GEC Petition for Credit(Links to an external site.): This online form begins a re-evaluation process for transferred courses to satisfy UNCG General Education Core (GEC) requirements. The process can only begin after transfer credit has been applied to your record. Also, this form only addresses concerns about transferred courses meeting requirements on the GEC section of your degree evaluation. Please consult your academic advisor for their re-evaluation process if there are questions about transferred courses meeting requirements in any other section of your degree evaluation.
