Credit earned at two-year institutions either while the student is in high school (including the summer after) or after the student has matriculated at Penn (Credit Away) will not be posted to the Penn transcript. For students who transfer to Penn from a two-year institution, however, departments may at their discretion grant credit for course work done at the two-year institution.
Transfer Credit to the Major
- Only the department or program advisors determine which credits transferred from another institution can count toward the major.
- At least half the course units in the major must be taken at Penn. Some departments require more.
