Transfer Credit Policy

Students may request transfer credit for relevant graduate courses taken at regionally accredited institutions, whether or not the master's degree was awarded. Transfer of credits is subject to the approval of the department or graduate adviser and to the regulations of the York program in which the student is matriculated. The following additional limitations apply:

1. In order to be counted toward graduation, the course(s) for which transfer credit is requested must have been completed within five years prior to the awarding of the York graduate degree

2. Credits for courses in which the student earned a grade below B, or took a non-letter grade such as a pass/fail option, are not transferable

3. A maximum of 12 credits may be transferred.
