Transfer Credit
When a student has completed the application for transfer to Coker, the Office of Academic Records will evaluate all transfer credits completed with a grade of C- or better from an accredited institution. Students may transfer a maximum of 78 hours from a two-year institution.
Regardless of the number of credits transferred in a single discipline of study, each major requires a minimum number of semester hours must be earned at Coker in the intended major (not including student teaching if an education major). The student must also have at least 30 semester hours of credit in upper-level (300 or 400) courses.
No time limit is set for the acceptability of credit; rather acceptability is based upon an evaluation by the Office of the Provost in consultation with the program coordinator of the student’s major or academic dean.
Regardless of the number of hours transferred to Coker, each student must satisfy the degree requirements as stated in the Academic Programs and Course Offerings sections of this catalog. Transfer students must complete a minimum of 30 total credit hours at Coker University, with a minimum of 12 hours completed in the declared major at Coker, unless otherwise noted. Exemptions must be approved through the Office of the Provost and will be noted on the student’s academic evaluation.
