D. Credits from International Schools

1. For consideration of transfer credit, official transcripts translated to English are required. Course descriptions or syllabi (in English) are required to determine transfer acceptance or equivalence to UIW courses.
2. English credit will not be awarded for courses completed in non-English speaking countries. Students may take CLEP or departmental challenge examinations to validate these credits. Such courses may be considered for meeting the foreign language area of the degree plan and the hours for this area will be waived.
3. Credit from international sister institutions with which the University has documented articulation agreements will receive special consideration.
