Transfer credits to Fort Lewis College?

I'm looking at transferring to Fort Lewis College and need to understand their credit transfer process. Do they have a maximum number of credits they accept, or are there particular types of courses that won't transfer?

When reviewing transfer applications, Fort Lewis College looks closely at the collegiate-level work you've already completed. They do have a maximum limit to the number of credits they'll accept from a two-year institution. This limit is usually around 64 semester hours. However, if you're transferring from a four-year institution, there's generally no limit to the number of credits that may be transferred.

The transferability of specific courses typically depends on the course level and grade received. Generally, college-level courses (not remedial or developmental) in which you've earned a grade of "C-" or better from a regionally accredited institution are considered for transfer.

However, it's important to note that just because a course transfers, it doesn't guarantee that the course will apply to your specific major or program requirements. It's a good idea to meet with an academic advisor to help ensure that your courses will apply to your intended degree program. They can give you a good idea of how your credits will transfer and help you plan your course schedule appropriately.

You can also use Fort Lewis College's transfer credit evaluation tool (if available on their website) to get an idea of how your courses will transfer before speaking with an academic advisor. Do remember, this is just a guide, and the final decision on credit transfer will be taken by the college after you apply and submit all necessary transcripts.
