Will my credits transfer to Smith College?

I'm planning to transfer to Smith College, but I'm a little worried about whether all my current credits will be accepted. Has anyone gone through this and can share their experiences?

Smith College generally evaluates credits from accredited institutions. However, there is no blanket rule guaranteeing that all credits transfer because each transfer situation is unique based on the courses you've taken and how they align with Smith's curriculum.

Here's something important: Smith accepts up to 64 credits from a two-year institution and up to 80 credits from a four-year institution. Credits are typically granted for courses with a grade of C- or better and that would be taught in a liberal arts context at Smith.

Your best plan of action will be to reach out to the registrar's office at Smith College - they are usually the ones who make the final decisions on credit transfers. You could also consult with your current academic advisor about the transferability of your courses. Additionally, you can request a preliminary evaluation of your credits before you decide to transfer, which can give you a clearer picture of where you stand in terms of meeting Smith's graduation requirements.
