How does Arizona College of Nursing evaluate transfer credits?

I'm thinking about transferring to the Arizona College of Nursing and want to know how they handle transfer credits. Is there a limit on the number of credits they'll accept, and do they have specific requirements?

Arizona College of Nursing uses a case-by-case basis to evaluate transfer credits, with specific factors such as the institution where the credits were earned, the relevance of the credits to the nursing program, the grade earned in the course, and how recently the course was taken into account.

Typically, this process involves the school receiving an official transcript from the institution where the credits were originally earned, which their admissions staff or an academic advisor would evaluate to see which if any, credits can be transferred in.

Bear in mind, however, that not all credits will be eligible for transfer, especially since nursing programs are highly specific. The transferability of your credits could be influenced by whether they align with the nursing curriculum at Arizona College of Nursing, as well as the accreditation status of the institution where you originally earned these credits.

Arizona College of Nursing also generally considers the grade you earned in the course for transfer credit. If you do not receive a passing grade, the credit likely will not be accepted.

As for a limit on transferable credits, this can vary based on different factors. I'd recommend reaching out directly to Arizona College to engage their admissions or transfer counseling team. They can provide you directly with information on their credit limit and the specific requirements for transfer credits to be accepted. Keep in mind that it's essential to provide as many details as possible about your previous coursework to help them make their evaluations.
