Visit Transfer Credit

How can I tell which of my courses are transfer courses?

All transfer courses in a student’s course history will be listed with a grade of ‘T’. Usually the course title and requirement code differ from that of the class at Drury, if any Drury equivalent exists.

I thought my transfer courses were approved to meet certain requirements. What do I do if they don't show up that way?

The online advising module is set up to accommodate Drury courses, as well as transfer courses having Drury equivalents. Occasionally, a transfer course will fall into the wrong category. A student who believes that this has occurred should contact Office of Records & Registration.

What if my transfer courses aren't on my record at all?

There are many explanations to why a student’s transfer coursework isn’t listed on his or her record.

  • Transfer coursework having a grade below ‘C’ is not accepted by Drury.
  • Transfer courses are removed from a student’s record if that student took an equivalent course at Drury.
  • All transfer credit taken after a student began coursework at Drury must be approved, with official transcripts on file, before the credit will be recorded.

What does the grade 'T' mean?

All transfer courses are entered with a grade of ‘T’, signifying that the course was transferred to Drury. Transfer courses have no effect on a student’s GPA at Drury.
