Below are the steps you must take to have courses from another U.S. college or university evaluated for the to see how they will transfer towards your degree at the University of Puget Sound:
- Complete the Transfer Evaluation Request form (PDF). Enter the courses you would like to take at the other college, along with your contact information and information about your academic program (e.g. major, minor). For summer classes, you can complete the form as soon as the summer schedule is published at the other school. The Transferology website is a guide to selecting courses that may transfer. Note that this is a guide, and not a guarantee that any particular course listed will transfer to the Puget Sound degree.
- Save the completed form. Email it to the Registrar's Office at registrar@pugetsound.edu. The form should be emailed from your pugetsound.edu email account.
- Your proposed courses will be evaluated following university transfer credit policies. Depending on the courses you listed, we may need to do further work before completing your request. We may ask you to provide a course syllabus to make a final transfer determination. Upon your return, you may also need to submit the textbook and completed assignments for review as the basis of the final transfer credit evaluation.
- The completed Transfer Evaluation Request form will be emailed to your pugetsound.edu email account. This completed Transfer Evaluation Request form becomes part of your academic record, and may also be sent to your advisor
- Contact the Registrar’s Office at the transfer college to request an official transcript be sent. It is the student's responsibility to have the transcript sent. An electronic transcript can be sent by email from the institution's third party provider to registrar@pugetsound.edu or by mail to this address:
