Transfer of Credit

Upon applying to the doctoral program, a student may present for evaluation up to six equivalent graduate credits from a regionally accredited college or university which were completed within the last seven years and not applied toward completion of a degree. A student should submit the course syllabi to the Director of the Doctoral Program for a formal review. Acceptance of such credits will depend upon whether or not the courses are related to the program, whether the student has obtained a grade of B or higher in the course(s), and whether or not the institution giving credit for the course would consider the courses acceptable for application to their degree programs. Transfer credits are not posted on a student’s record until the student successfully earns six doctoral credits at Holy Family University. Applicants should review any additional specific requirements concerning acceptance of transfer credits by the doctoral program with the Program Director. After admission all courses taken at other institutions for transfer credit require prior approval from the Director of the Doctoral Program and the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Maximum allowable transfer is six graduate credits. Forms for approval of transfer credits are available from the Program Director.
