Most courses for which credits are granted will not satisfy a general education requirement or major/minor requirement. Credit is usually given in the term in which scores are received or fall semester of the student’s first year at Denison University.
Denison accepts transfer credit for courses that are either equivalent to a course in the Denison catalog or at a level deemed appropriate by the department or program in which credit is being sought. Requests to have transfer credit fulfill a major, minor or concentration requirement are subject to approval by the department or program.
The scores are not assigned a letter grade and will not be included in the grade point calculations. Incoming first-year students and transfer students should claim such earned Advanced Placement credit within the first semester of enrolling at Denison.
