Academic Preparation
Once accepted, you’ll receive an evaluation of your course work from the Rensselaer faculty. Transfer students can expect to receive full credit for courses of comparable depth. Rensselaer will only transfer credit for courses in which you received a grade of C or better.
To ensure the most complete evaluation, please have official transcripts and course descriptions sent from all previously attended colleges.
There is no limit on the number of credits a student can transfer, but four semesters must be spent as a full-time student in a Rensselaer program to receive a degree from Rensselaer.
If you would like to transfer AP, IB, or A level credit from your high school, make sure your official test results are sent directly to:
Rensselaer Admissions, Transfer Programs
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
110 8th Street
Troy, NY 12180
Additional information about advanced placement credit will be available at orientation.
