Q: How do I request official transcripts from my previous college(s)?

A: Most colleges offer the ability to request your official transcripts online. Please visit your college’s website to follow their transcript request process.

Q:  Will my credits be accepted at RCSJ? Are there any time limits?

A: Most college-level courses from accredited institutions that apply to your degree program at RCSJ, with a grade of "Pass"​ or​ ​ “C-​”​ or higher will be accepted. Science courses that are older than 5 years may not be used to satisfy the requirements for some Health Science selective admissions programs. Other older courses will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis for eligibility at the discretion of the Transfer Advisor and the Dean of the program.

Q:  Why didn’t all my credits transfer?

A: Only credits that apply to your major at RCSJ will be transferred. Courses with grades below a “C-​​​” will not transfer. Credit hours for courses taken must also match the credit hours of the applicable course at RCSJ. It is advised that you meet with your Academic Advisor to review how any transferred credits may be used towards your degree requirements.

Q: I earned credits at a business/trade school. Will those credits transfer?

A: We are able to accept course credits from certificate granting institutions such as business, technical or vocational institutions, whose courses​ have been evaluated by the American Council on Education (ACE) and have received an ACE course number. Please visit ACENet.edu to see if your institution and specific course have received this credit approval. All other courses from accredited academic institutions recognized by either the US Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) will be reviewed on a course-by-course basis for equivalency with our courses.​​
