Receive credit for your previous college experience.
RDU is committed to supporting working adults with previous college experience.  We have a number of options for students looking to transfer their earned credits to our institution.

National and international credit transfers
RDU evaluates courses and degree programs from regionally and nationally accredited institutions from across the United States.  We also perform internal evaluations of academic records submitted from most international colleges and universities.

Transfer policies and information
Students may be able to transfer previously earned credits to RDU.  These credits may be used toward the completion of a any degree program offered at our institution. In order to receive credit for a course, a student must have earned a grade C or higher.  Although students may be credited for previous college coursework, they may need to earn additional credits through RDU in order to fulfill certain program requirements. 

Semester credits will be converted to our quarter system. English translations are required for academic records issued in other languages. RDU will accept translations from the issuing institution or an official translation service.  We may also use internal certified translators for French- and Spanish-language records.

National testing programs
Students who pass national testing program examinations may acquire undergraduate transfer credit.

RDU supports the educational goals of military personnel.  Our Credit Recognition Program allows service members to use their military training and experience to assist them in earning an Associate of Arts degree or enter other undergraduate programs at the University.
