| transfer_credit | (passed governance 9/8/2014) Transfer of Credit Credit for courses must have been completed at regionally accredited institutions of higher education where the grade received was at least a C- (College of Nursing & Health Sciences requires at least a C+), in order to be considered for transfer to UMass Boston. Please note that: • For the granting of all transfer credit, coursework must be comparable in content and scope to those offered by UMass Boston, as determined by faculty. • Internships, practicums, college success, and vocational courses are generally not accepted for transfer credit. • A maximum of 90 credits can be transferred from four-year institutions. No more than 70 credits may be transferred from community colleges. • Some specific transfer credit policies apply by college. Transfer Credit Equivalency Established UMass Boston transfer course equivalencies are available for your review through Transferology. Students will receive an official Transfer Credit Evaluation (TCE) after they are admitted. 2. On the Courses tab – type the name of a school from which you will transfer credit (if you have attended more than one you will need to repeat this step). 10. Your transfer credit results will display. Student receive a full transfer credit evaluation after admission. Credit by Examination Course credit may be awarded by achieving minimum score requirements on the Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB) and College Level Examination Program (CLEP) exams. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu | |
| transfer_credit | All new first-year and transfer students are required to complete the SGWP. While students with qualifying transfer credit, Advanced Placement (AP) scores of 4 or higher, or CLEP scores of 50 or higher may have already fulfilled the English Composition I requirement, and while students transferring 30 or more credits are not required to take a critical analysis (first-year seminar) course, participation in the placement process ensures optimal course selection and provides an accurate baseline for academic advising. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Transfer Students The ALEKS math placement exam is required of ALL incoming undergraduate transfer students EXCEPT: 1. Liberal arts students receiving math transfer credit who do not intend to take more math courses. 2. Science students receiving transfer credit for college algebra or pre-calculus with a grade of B or better in the most recent semester, and students transferring in calculus or higher mathematics courses. 3. Management students receiving transfer credit for college algebra with a grade of B or better in the most recent semester, and students transferring in pre-calculus or higher mathematics courses. 4. Bachelor of Arts students and nursing students receiving transfer credit for statistics. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Once you access the Preparation and Learning module you will have 12 months to use it. Attention Transfer Students: You will lose math transfer credit if you register for a course that is at or below the level you transferred in. For example, if you transfer in Precalculus (MATH 130), and then take College Algebra (MATH 115), you would lose the MATH 130 transfer course. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu | |
| transfer_credit | • Enrolling for credit in a lower-level course after credits have been earned in a higher-level course not taken at the University of Massachusetts in a sequence will result in the loss of transfer credit even though it is at the higher level. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu | |
| transfer_credit | Distribution Requirement To develop a broad familiarity with the range of human knowledge, you must complete, or earn transfer credit for, certain courses in four broad areas of study: • Arts (AR) and Humanities (HU) • develop an informed appreciation of the arts and humanities, which encompass philosophy, literature, the fine arts, and the performing arts. | 2026-2027 | catalog.umb.edu |
