Transfer Credits

Purdue North Central has built strong relationships with colleges throughout the state to facilitate the transfer of coursework. Once you are admitted, your previous college work is evaluated for PNC credit based on the transcripts you have sent. It is imperative that you send transcripts reflecting all of your college course work. When the evaluation is complete, you and your advisor will receive a list of your coursework that will transfer from your previous institution(s) to PNC. Course grades are not transferred to your PNC record, and will not be included in the computation of your grade-point average at PNC.*

*Note: The Nursing Department considers all transfer credits and GPA for admission into the Nursing Program.
