Course Review Process

Transferable credit reviews are initiated once an official transcript for admitted degree-seeking students are received.  Evaluations are completed within 5-7 business days and students are notified through their ISU email account.

• All official transcripts must be sent to ISU directly from the issuing institution.
• Office of the Registrar evaluation specialists initially determines lower-division course equivalencies based on content matches between the two institutions.
• Students will work with their major department to determine equivalent upper-division credit.
• If the course content does not match a course taught at ISU or can not be determined based on the information available the credit will transfer as an elective (1XXX, 2XXX, 3XXX, 4XXX).  
• Coursework that initially transfers to ISU as elective credit may go through a second review process.  The student will initiate the review process with their academic advisor. 

Students should log into their BengalWeb account for academic advisor information.  If the student needs assistance or would like to speak to an advisor contact ISU's Academic Advising office, 208/282-3277.
