Transfer students begin here. Please note, for consideration as a transfer student, you must have successfully completed at least 12 semester credit hours of college-level coursework.

Not sure about which credits will transfer? There are two online resources for your benefit that demonstrate how your credit will transfer to Purdue with your specific major. The Purdue Transfer Equivalency Self Service allows you to enter your previous college coursework to receive a comprehensive report that includes the credit you will receive toward the degree plan for your desired major and the remaining courses that will need to be completed.
