Credits earned through other regionally accredited institutions may be transferred to WMCC if students earned a grade of C or better and if the credits are equivalent to WMCC courses in the students’ degree or certificate program. For Nursing/Health Science required lab courses, students must have earned a C+ or better to receive credit. Online lab courses may qualify for general science elective credit, but do not satisfy the lab requirement for these programs. To apply for transfer credit, students must contact their former college to arrange for official transcripts and course descriptions to be sent to the Admissions Office for review. Upon receipt of all documentation, the Vice President of Academic Affairs or designee will coordinate with appropriate department chairs to determine eligibility and acceptability of transfer credits. If transfer credit is granted, it is important to note that grades received for courses completed at any institution other than WMCC will not be utilized for calculating a student's cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA).
