Courses must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible to transfer:
Purdue Global courses are made up of quarter credits. A semester credit is equal to 1.5 quarter credits. As an example, if you have 60 semester credits that you expect to transfer, that would equal 90 quarter credits at Purdue Global.
You will need to request an official transcript from each college or university that you attended in the past. An Advisor can provide you with the College and University Transcript Request Form to assist in this process.
Official transcripts must be sent to the Office of the Registrar at the following address:
Purdue Global
Office of the Registrar
2550 Northwestern Avenue, Suite 1100
West Lafayette, IN 47906
Transcripts must arrive sealed and sent directly from the registrar of the academic institution that awarded the credits.
You must provide evidence of prior learning prior to the first day of the course for which the credit is intended; however, we strongly recommend that you provide your official transcripts to the Office of the Registrar by the last day of the first term. After this point, in certain cases, we may deny you the opportunity for a transfer credit evaluation due to course scheduling factors.
If you wish to submit a portfolio for experiential learning credit, you are strongly encouraged to enroll in a credit for work experience course in your first two terms.
*Credit for Prior Learning: Purdue Global does not guarantee transferability of credit. See the University Catalog for the Prior Learning policy.
†Tuition Reduction Eligibility: Reduced tuition recipients are not eligible for other Purdue Global tuition reductions or ExcelTrack® pricing.
