I'm planning to transfer to Saint Mary's College and am curious about which of my current classes and credits will transfer. How should I go about figuring this out?
Your best option in this situation would be to contact the Saint Mary's College Registrar's Office or the admissions office directly. They can give you the most accurate information about which of your specific credits will transfer.
Additionally, many colleges have an online transfer credit evaluation tool, which can provide a basic understanding of how your credits may transfer over. If available on their website, this could be a quick way to get a general idea before reaching out to anyone directly.
Also, consider talking to an academic advisor either at your current institution or Saint Mary's College. They can guide you through the process, check which of your courses are accredited, or help translate your current coursework to fit into Saint Mary's curriculum.
Remember, not all courses or credits will transfer equally, and certain requirements must be met at the degree-granting institution. So you may need to take certain courses at Saint Mary's even if you've taken a similar course before.
Lastly, make sure to send all your official transcripts to Saint Mary's College so that they have all the information necessary to evaluate your credits.
Good luck with your transfer process!
