2. Your Transfer Credit

Transfer Credit Evaluation

Your Transfer Credit evaluation will be prepared after the University receives your admission deposit.

These reports are accessed through MyUAlbany. Click for instructions.

The Transfer Credit Evaluation lists all the courses you’ve taken at previous institutions, and shows how those courses transfer to UAlbany. 

You must review this carefully to be sure that every class you’ve taken somewhere else is listed – even those for which you will earn no credit at Albany.
