option.

64-Hour
Limit Rule - Only 64 semester hours can
be accepted for transfer from a two-year school.
(A bachelor's degree at USA requires a minimum
of 128 semester hours and only 1/2 of the degree
can be earned at a two-year school). All courses
the student has taken are evaluated, but only
64 semester hours can be used to meet program
requirements.

Some
courses may not transfer to the University.
Credit is not granted if a student withdrew
from a course or made an unacceptable grade
in it. Other courses may be not accepted for
transfer for the following reasons: U - upper
level course taken at a two-year school, R -
remedial course, V - vocational course, or S
- special purpose course. Credit for some of
these courses may be awarded with the dean's
approval.

Transfer
Modification Form - When credit is awarded
for a course not initially accepted by the University
or when corrections to the evaluation are made,
a Transfer Modification Form must be completed.

courses may be substituted for specific requirements
or a requirement may be waived. Subs and waivers

or college dean for the appropriate procedure
for approving substitutions and waivers.
