Transfer Credit

A student must receive written permission from his/her advisor and from the Registrar in order to take course work at another accredited college. The form for this purpose is available from the Registrar's Office. A student must earn a grade of C- or better in order to transfer credit. Except for certain specified programs, grades are not transferred. However, if a student enrolls at one of the Central Pennsylvania Consortium colleges or another college-affiliated program, grades and credits will be transferred as if the student took the courses at Gettysburg.

The final year of academic work must be taken in residence at Gettysburg College. A regularly matriculating student is not permitted to transfer more than three courses from other institutions toward his/her degree at Gettysburg.
