I'm studying nursing at another school but thinking about transferring to Goodwin College. Does anyone know if they accept nursing transfer credits? Trying to make sure my past work isn't wasted!
Yes, Goodwin University does accept transfer credits from accredited institutions, including for its nursing program. However, the acceptance of those credits depends on several factors like the similarity of the courses with Goodwin's curriculum, the grades you achieved, and the accreditation status of your former institution.
In general, Goodwin University accepts transfer credits for courses where you achieved a "C" grade or better, but the requirements may be more specific for the nursing program. For instance, some nursing programs require a grade of "B" or better for nursing-specific coursework. Additionally, the credits must have been earned at a nationally or regionally accredited institution.
However, please remember, it's always recommended to contact the admissions office at Goodwin University directly. They will be able to provide you with the actual policy on transferring credits and even compare your past coursework to their requirements. Don't forget to have your prior institution's transcripts ready for review, as you'll likely need them to facilitate the process.
