How Transfer Credit Appears on the Transcript
Transfer credit submitted to and approved by Drew University will be entered onto the student record, with a letter grade preceded by a T, to reflect the coursework taken elsewhere (e.g. ‘TA’).
If the transfer credit is submitted without a final transcript a grade of ‘TN’ will display noting that the transfer class was approved, but a final grade (transcript) was never received. Transfer classes with a grade of ‘TN’ will not count towards the degree. Students that have transfer credit with a grade of ‘TN,’ viewable in Ladder or via TreeHouse Unofficial Transcript, should request a final transcript from the transfer institution to be sent to Drew University’s Office of the Registrar. If a student does not plan to use the transfer course, they should contact the Office of the Registrar to have it removed from their record.
How to Submit Final Transcripts or Copies of Test Scores/Certificates
Transcripts for credits taken at another institution should be submitted directly from the institution to Drew University.
- Paper Transcripts: please request a transcript from the school and have it sent to:

Prospective Undergraduate (CLA) Students
How to Transfer Credit for Prospective Students
All transfer credit taken prior to enrollment at Drew University should be submitted to the Office of Admissions during the application process in order to be considered. Transfer credit must be received by the university in the form of a sealed, official (or secure electronic) transcript or score report.
All transfer work will be evaluated by the transfer coordinator, department, and Dean’s Office upon acceptance. Eligible transfer work will be entered onto the student record after enrollment, visible in TreeHouse by clicking the “Ladder Degree Audit” link under the “Student” tab.
If the student wants to appeal the transfer credit equivalency, they should make an appointment with their academic advisor to review their Ladder. Advisors can submit any appeal requests to the Office of the Registrar for review.
This page does not represent an exhaustive list of transfer credit policies and restrictions. Please refer to the Transfer Credit Policy section of the most recent CLA catalog for more information.
