Transfer Students

Welcome to VUST!

Transfer students must meet the admission requirements in effect at the time of matriculation and must comply with the same admission procedures for each selected educational program as mentioned above. A transfer course will be labeled as TC in student’s transcript.

TC can be awarded for courses with a letter grade only “B” or above for graduate courses.  Courses that are of a technical nature must have been completed within a recent time period (less than 7 years) to be considered for a TC award. Applicable courses taken for credit at international/foreign institutions must be evaluated by an approved Credential Evaluation Agency before a TC award can be considered.

Per SCHEV regulation 8VAC40-31-140-B6, for all undergraduate programs including certificate programs, maximum number of transfer credits accepted cannot exceed 70% of the program completion requirement. For all graduate programs, maximum number of transfer credit cannot exceed 49% of the program completion requirement.
