TRANSCRIPTS

If you have taken courses at another institution, you will need to have a copy of your Official Transcripts sent to Stony Brook University in order to earn credit towards your degree. Once you have completed the course and earned a grade of C or better, contact the Registrar's Office at the school where the course was completed and have them send an official transcript to us via any of the options below:

Students intending to transfer from Stony Brook University to another institution can request their transcripts from the Registrar's Office.

 

 

***All official transcripts must be sent directly from your previous school***


See Transfer Credit Policies in the Undergraduate Bulletin

DUPLICATE CREDITS

Students cannot get credit twice for equivalent courses. If credit was already received for the course, you will not receive additional credit toward graduation by repeating the course.
It is strongly recommended that students meet with a general advisor and/or major advisor before registerring for a course previously taken.

WRT CREDIT

Students may transfer credits to satisfy the D.E.C. category A or SBC learning objective WRT only with approved courses completed prior to matriculation at Stony Brook. Course work taken at institutions other than Stony Brook after matriculation will not apply to DEC A or SBC WRT.

UPPER DIVISION CREDITS

Upper-division credit must be earned at a four-year school.
