The
College of Business Administration accepts transfer credits from other universities subject to
the policies of the University and the College.
For newly admitted 'incoming students',
credit earned at other institutions is evaluated by the College. This is done in the
Office of Undergraduate Programs using course descriptions and input provided by the department chairpersons. Articulation
agreements are maintained with several institutions as these agreements define course
equivalencies. Once a student has been admitted to The University of Tulsa and has
submitted transcripts from previously attended institutions, a course-by-course analysis
will occur. Students will be notified in writing of their advanced standing and the
number of hours accepted in transfer.
"Continuing Students" cannot transfer credit from other institutions without
the advanced permission from Advising (forms available in the Office of
Undergraduate Programs). Upon
completion of the semester, students who received permission to transfer course credit
should request that an official transcript be sent to the TU Registrar's office. The
Office of Undergraduate Programs will confirm approval and document the transfer credit
on the
student's transcript. Once a student begins work towards the BSBA and BSIBL
programs in the College their ability to transfer credits from another institution is
limited. The only courses eligible for transfer are block general education electives,
free electives, and foreign languages. Transfers for these specific courses are only
allowed until the student earns 79 hours, since the last 45 hours of a degree must be
completed at TU. No transfer credits will be accepted toward the Business Core or
Business Major subsequent to enrollment at The University of Tulsa.* Business Core includes (BUS 1013, BL
2013, MATH 1093, MATH 1103, ENGL 1033, MIS 1123, ECON 2013, ECON 2023, ACCT 2113, ACCT
2123, QM 2013, QM 2023, FIN 3003, MKTG 3003, QM 3023, MGT 3003, MIS 3003 and MGT 4073)
*The following is a list of exceptions to the
policy:
- Continuing students may transfer up to 6 credits earned
during the summer at an AACSB accredited program upon approval of the Office
of Undergraduate Programs
- Should the student cease to be enrolled at the University
for at least one non-summer term and then return, credit earned at an AACSB program may be
transferred.
Other important limitations on transfer credit applying
to all College programs include:
- Credit by examination will be acceptable toward a degree, including,
Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and proficiency
examinations consistent with University policy, except business core courses
(other than economics). CLEP credits are not accepted.
- Course work taken from accredited institutions requires a
grade of C or better to be considered for transfer.
- At least 50 percent (62 credit hours) of credits must be
comprised of general education components. Up to nine semester hours of economics
and up to six semester hours of statistics may be counted as part of the general education
component.
- The last 45 hours of course work must be completed in
residence at the University for students entering during or after the fall 1995 semester.
- Transfer credit is not granted for correspondence work.
- Junior college work may not account for more than one-half
the hours required for graduation.
