Course transfer credit is subject to department evaluation and to the Office of the Registrar's external credit evaluation. These courses may result in a replacement course for MCS required course or may establish placement in a higher-level course. Transfer requests must first be submitted to Student Services Center prior to being evaluated by your advisor.
