How do I know if my courses will transfer?
All courses and grades from a regionally accredited institution may transfer and be used in calculating your attempted and earned credit hours and your total cumulative GPA. These totals will be used for financial aid status, scholarship requirements and academic status. However, all credits will not necessarily satisfy the requirements for your specific major. Applicable credits for degree requirements will be determined by the dean's office of your major.

How does transfer work get posted to the UL Lafayette transcript?

What do I do if an advisee doesn’t have transfer work evaluated?
Please first check to determine if the course has in fact been evaluated. If so, please reach out to transfercredit@louisiana.edu so that we may update the ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ’s record.

Please keep in mind, appropriate substitution paperwork may need to be completed, but it should not halt the advising process.
