• Transfer Credits Acceptance

  • Crowder College accepts transfer credits from institutions accredited by the major institutional accrediting agencies. The Registrar evaluates the transfer credits. A course syllabus may be requested, if necessary. If a student believes he or she has met a course requirement at a previous institution, the student can (with the help of their Advisor) request a course substitution. Course substitutions are approved by the Division Chair and Academic Affairs and recorded through a Course Substitution form submitted to the Registrar. If approved, the course equivalency is documented in Records.

Individual courses that comprise the CORE 42 are guaranteed to transfer one-to-one among all public (and participating independent) colleges and universities in Missouri. For questions regarding the transferability of CORE 42 designated courses at Crowder College or other Missouri institutions, please contact your advisor.
