Non-Marist Winter Study Abroad Programs

Interested in studying abroad during winter break through another institution? Courses taken over winter break at other institutions can be approved for Marist credit. The procedure to transfer credit is outlined here:

  • Transfer credits will not be granted unless the Marist form request to take a course at another college   is completed and returned to the Office of the Registrar prior to taking the course. The Department Chair and the Dean must sign the form before returning the form to the Office of the Registrar.
  • Allow two weeks processing time.
  • Transfer credits will not be accepted from any accredited institution when the equivalent course is being offered online or on campus by Marist College during the same semester.
  • Transfer credits will not be accepted from any accredited institution when the indicated course will be used to meet a requirement (e.g. Core requirement) that can be met by a course that is being offered online or on campus by Marist College during the same semester.
  • Transfer credits will not be accepted from two year accredited institutions after a student’s total credits equal 70.
  • Transfer credits will not be accepted from any other accredited institution after a student’s total credits equal 90.
  • Grades for courses taken elsewhere will not be included in the computation of a student’s Marist grade point average.
  • Only courses in which a C or better has been obtained may be transferred to meet major, related field, and Core requirements. Credit for C- grades may be awarded on the elective credit category only.
  • You must forward an OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT from the visiting accredited institution to the Registrar’s Office after completion of course(s).
