Policies

To be considered for credit students must achieve scores of 50 or higher for each CLEP exam.

Students who wish to receive Advanced Placement for subjects not listed below, and who have earned a score of 3 or higher, should request that the School Dean and Department Chair of the department in which the subject is located review their examination scores for the assignment of Advanced Placement credit.

Applications for admissions may be considered if the transfer student: 1. has completed 24 semester hours or 36 quarter hours; 2. is not presently on social or academic suspension at the last or current school of attendance; 3. has at least a cumulative grade point average of a C or better (2.0). Transfer students who have attended another accredited college but have earned less than twenty-four (24) semester hours of transferable credit must meet all freshman requirements listed above. Although the Admissions Office makes the initial review of courses taken at other institutions, the official evaluation for transfer credit is done by the Registrar and eligible transfer credit is posted on the student's Saint Augustine's University transcript. The evaluation of a transcript is not official until the credits have been accepted by the Registrar and recorded on the student's transcript at Saint Augustine's University as transfer credit. Only comparable college-level courses in which the student has earned grades of "C" or better are accepted as transfer credit. The maximum number of transfer credits that may be accepted from all previous colleges or universities is ninety (90).

Credit for supporting courses completed at another institution for other than the first major may be transferred to Saint Augustine's University as part of the maximum number (i.e., 90) of transferable credits.

Colleges Once a student has matriculated at Saint Augustine's University, he/she may not pursue courses at another accredited college or university as transfer credits towards a degree without obtaining, in advance of registration for such courses, written approval from the Department Chair, the School Dean, and the Provost & Vice President for Academic Affairs. Further, after a student has earned 65 or more semester hours of academic credits at another college, credits earned after enrolling in Saint Augustine's University from a junior college, community college, technical institute or other comparable institution will not be accepted as transfer credits. All transfer credits will be evaluated where applicable, but will not be computed in the grade point average at Saint Augustine's University.

Fall and Spring Semester credits earned through the CRC are not considered transfer credits and, therefore, are computed in the students' semester and cumulative grade point averages. If a student earned a two-year degree with an Associate in Applied Science, then the student's academic coursework will be transferred on a course-by-course basis. Credit for Prior Learning Students may submit evidence that they have met the student learning outcomes (SLOs) required for the General Education Program or major curriculum through life and/or work experience.

Credit by Examination College Level Examination Program (CLEP) CLEP is a national program of credit-by-examination that offers students the opportunity to obtain recognition for College-level achievement. CLEP credits will be reflected on the student's transcript as transfer credits. No more than twenty-four (24) hours of credit can be received through CLEP tests for both general and subject examinations combined.

Students who receive transfer credit may register for any of the available courses on the advice of the program director.
