Transferring Credits to Marymount University

Marymount University generally accepts credits for courses taken at a regionally accredited institution within the last ten years and completed with a grade of C or higher. A maximum of 75 credit hours from a two-year institution and an additional 9 credit hours from a four-year institution (84 credits) can be applied to a degree. Credit acceptance is at the discretion of Marymount University. For more information about current transfer policies, see the Marymount University Catalog.

  • All transfer courses are subject to faculty review within the discipline of a course. This review process can take some time, so it may delay the posting of your transfer credit.
  • Credit will only be awarded upon recipient of official transcripts.
  • Official transcripts should be sent as early as possible so that your credit will be evaluated before orientation and course registration.
  • Elective credit will be awarded as placeholder credit and will remain on your record unless or until an equivalent Marymount course has been determined.

Official transcripts from prior institutions must be sent directly from the student’s previous institution(s), and credit-by-exam scores must be sent directly from the appropriate testing agency. Electronic documents may be emailed to , while hard copy official transcripts should be mailed to:
