Wichita State University Transfer Equivalency
Registrar
Home
It is the policy of Wichita State University (WSU) to
accept all credits – with the exception of remedial coursework –
earned at a post-secondary institution accredited by one of the
U.S. regional accrediting agencies. Working with faculty in academic colleges or departments
within WSU, the Registrar determines how those credits apply toward a particular degree
program. Sometimes there can be a significant difference between what transfers
and what counts toward a degree, especially if the courses are vocational in
nature.
To lookup the WSU equivalency for a transfer course:
- Select the State where the
transfer institution is located.
- Select the Name of the transfer institution.
- Select an individual Subject area abbreviation or * All Subjects *.
- Select an
individual Course or * All Subjects *.
To view the results, select either HTML/Excel
or PDF and click the Submit button.
Courses not listed in the transfer equivalency system have not been
previously evaluated for transfer; however, that does not necessarily mean that
the course does not transfer or that Wichita State University does not accept
credits from that school. Students should contact their
Academic
Advising Officee for assistance with transfer of courses not listed. If a student is not yet admitted and doesn't
know who will advise them, they should contact the Registrar's Office.
A transfer course that has a WSU equivalency course number of 2000, 4000,
6000, or 8000 is counted as an elective. Some courses with a specific WSU
equivalent course will also only count as an elective, depending upon the
student’s program at WSU. The number of elective hours that count toward a
degree can vary from 3 to 40, depending upon the academic college or
department’s program.
The effective term column indicates the last term a course was reviewed for
transfer to Wichita State University. A course is reviewed because it is a newly
offered course or due to changes in course structure.
Tip: If the course is not listed in the drop down list, select
* All Courses *. Some courses must be taken with one or more
other classes in order to count as a transfer course.
