2.2 Transfer of Graduate Credits
Students may prepare a petition to transfer a maximum of 12 graduate credits for which they received a grade of “B” or better completed at another institution that would satisfy program requirements. To be eligible for transfer of credits, the course must have been taken at the graduate level, the Academic Advisor and a faculty member must approve it, and the course must NOT have been taken as part of another degree requirement. The student must speak with the Academic Advisor to determine if a course can be transferred. Students must attach course syllabi, transcripts and any other requested documentation to the petition for transfer of credits. Transfer credits are not calculated into the graduate GPA. The transfer petition is available on the Registrar’s section of the website under “forms”. On the recommendation of faculty, the advisor may also require that the student attend (without having to register for the course) the equivalent MGH IHP CSD course even though transfer credit for a similar course taken elsewhere was awarded.
