Want to know how your previous college coursework will transfer to BU? Check out our How to Transfer Credit guide for more information about the credit evaluation process.
Please create an account with Transferology to see how your courses taken at other colleges or universities may transfer to Boston University, assuming the minimum required grades are met. If your previous or current coursework is listed as a “match” you do not need to submit syllabi for those courses. However, if your courses are listed as a “maybe” we will require syllabi for the evaluation.
Additionally, please keep in mind that transfer courses, even those granted course equivalency, do not earn HUB General Education units at Boston University. The BU Hub Transfer Student Curriculum has been designed specifically for transfer students, to recognize the work you have already done while still providing you with the educational benefits of the Hub program.
Final determination of transfer credit acceptance is ultimately made by the respective Department and Division Evaluators and through the University Registrar upon admission to Boston University. You must submit official transcripts reflecting your final semester of attendance from all colleges before a final determination can be made on transfer credit.
