Important Information
Transfer Credit Policy
Anna Maria College is a transfer friendly institution which means we make every effort to accept transfer credits from accredited college and universities in order to maximize your transferrable credit and time to degree completion.
Subject to Anna Maria College program residency requirements.*
Up to 75 credits
may be accepted in transfer for those students without a previously earned Bachelor’s degree.
Students pursuing a second Bachelor’s degree may transfer
up to 90 credits
Credit is generally granted for courses taken at other colleges or universities that correspond to or are comparable to those offered at Anna Maria College.
Courses taken at the remedial level, usually designated by a course number that is less than the 100 level (e.g., 090 level), will not be accepted in transfer.
A grade of C- or better must be earned to be considered for transfer
. For applicants with an earned associate’s degree, courses for which a passing grade has been earned will be accepted in transfer.
A minimum grade of C is required for courses considered the equivalent of and therefore satisfying the requirements for Freshman Composition (ENG 103) and Writing through Literature (ENG 104).
Certain majors may require higher grades in specific courses for them to be accepted in transfer to that specific major. Examples include:
Social Work
– a grade of C+ or higher is required for any Social Work course(s) taken elsewhere and must have been from another CSWE-accredited college to be accepted in transfer.
Nursing
– a grade of C+ or better is required for Introduction to Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology I and II, and Microbiology; a grade of C or better is required for Introduction to Psychology, Human Life Span Development, Introduction to Sociology, and Statistics.
All science courses must have been taken within the past seven years.
*A minimum of 45 credits is required to earn a Bachelor’s degree at Anna Maria College. Some programs may require additional credits – refer to the College Catalog for additional details.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Program
Anna Maria College recognizes the rigor of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program. Students who complete IB Diploma Program ​may apply for Anna Maria College credit and may be eligible to receive up to 32 credits.  Official IB score reports should be sent directly from
International Baccalaureate
to the Anna Maria College Registrar’s Office. The College will evaluate and notify the student of accepted credit once scores are received.  Students who complete the IB Diploma Program can receive up to 30 credits at Anna Maria College, equivalent to one full year of study or sophomore status. Please note that under this policy, qualified students still must satisfy all requirements of their declared program of study as stated in the Anna Maria College catalog.  In cases where accepted IB coursework does not meet the standards of their declared program of study, the course(s) must be taken and passed with sufficient minimum grade or higher.
International Baccalaureate
students who do not complete the Diploma Program are also eligible to receive credit for specific courses, which may be awarded for Higher Level or Standard Level courses with grades of 4, 5, 6, or 7. A maximum of 32 credits will be awarded.  Credit may be applied to a major or minor only on the favorable written recommendation of the appropriate program director. IB course credit may not duplicate other credit granted, for example, AP, CLEP, or transfer credit. To receive college credit, students should have their International Baccalaureate Diploma or International Baccalaureate Higher Level examination scores sent to the Office of the Registrar.
The following tables provide general guidelines for use in evaluating International Baccalaureate course transcripts.
