7. Acceptance of transfer credits is at the Institution’s discretion. The student may be asked to provide course descriptions or other pertinent information necessary to evaluate coursework for which transfer of credit is being sought. 8. Nursing Program – Please refer to the nursing student handbook for additional requirements regarding transfer credits for the nursing program. FROM THIS SCHOOL TO OTHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS Students are advised that it is frequently difficult to transfer credits (or degrees, diplomas, or other academic credentials) from one educational institution to another institution even if both institutions are accredited. Therefore, students should not enroll at this or any educational institution, if there is any possibility they may want to transfer academic credit or credentials (diplomas, degrees, certificates) to another educational institution unless they have determined in advance that they will be able to transfer credits. If the school to which a student may desire to transfer credits has different accreditation from this institution, credits may not transfer.
