Credit Transfer
Credit transferred to the University does not automatically mean that the credit will be applicable to the Engineering Technology Management Program. Prior credit transferred should be from a completed accredited engineering technology associate degree program. Course-by-course transferability decisions are not based on mere course name and description of the previous course but on such accreditation factors as the performance indicators for the course, the course’s prerequisites, the assignments for the course, and how those assignments are evaluated. Neither admission to the program nor online delivery is guaranteed if the student does not have an approved associate degree.
General Guidelines
The following are general guidelines. Upon admission, academic advisors review transcripts to determine which credit transfers and which courses will be included in the student's program of study.
- Credit earned from regionally accredited colleges or universities is transferable.
- Transfer credit is assigned only for courses in which the student has earned a grade of "C" or higher.
- Generally, an equivalent number of credit hours are given.
- In some cases, credit may be transferable to the University, but may not be applied toward completion of the Engineering Technology Management Program.
- Remedial, audited, or non-credit courses do not transfer. This may include courses that apply credit towards graduation at the source institution, if they are determined to be equivalent to remedial courses at ISU.
- College living, orientation, and study classes will transfer for credit if they received credit towards graduation at the source institution.
- Up to 90 credit hours of total transfer credit will be accepted for transfer into a bachelor degree program; at least 30 credit hours must be completed through ISU to earn the bachelor degree.
