 Transfer Credit

 


Transfer Credit

Evaluation of transfer credit for the psychology major or minor is a two step process. First, Stanford credit for courses completed at other institutions must be granted by the Transfer Credit Evaluation Office in the Office of the Registrar. Those units can then be applied toward the 180 units required for graduation. Second, the Psychology Student Services Office will evaluate the courses to determine if they can be applied toward psychology major/minor requirements. You must be declared a psychology major/minor to have your petition evaluated. To have a course evaluated, students must complete an undergraduate petition form (click here to download form), along with the course syllabus and submit it with a copy of the signed transcript from the Transfer Credit Evaluation Office.

Transfer psychology majors must complete at least 28 units of course work in the Stanford Psychology Department, and no more than 10 transfer units can be counted toward the psychology minor. Students may use only one transfer course toward fulfilling the core course requirement of the major or minor. The units from additional core-equivalent transfer courses can be applied toward the major or minor, but the courses cannot be counted as one of the required core courses.
