If you have previous education, training, or experience, you may request
transfer of credit to Kaplan College. Although we cannot guarantee the
transferability of credit from any of these sources, we will consider:
- Credit earned through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
- Military training and experience (experiential learning)
- Transfer credit from accredited postsecondary institutions
- Various certification exams
To apply for credit or if you are using veterans benefits to attend Kaplan
College, you must complete a Credit for Previous Education, Training, Work
Experience (Experiential Learning), or CLEP form and submit official
transcripts, course descriptions, and other supporting documentation prior to
the first day of the course. If credit is granted, we will shorten the duration
of the course proportionately and notify you (and the Veterans Administration,
if applicable) accordingly.
Transfer of Credit Between Kaplan Higher Education Institutions
Course credit may be transferred from any Kaplan Higher Education institution
upon your acceptance to the receiving Kaplan Higher Education institution.
Transfer of credit will be based on:
- Courses for which you have attained a grade of "C" or better
- Course descriptions, objectives, or outcomes
- Core/major courses that apply to the program
- Conversions from quarter to semester credit systems, or vice versa, that
follow common practices for academic credit conversions
If you are transferring from another Kaplan Higher Education institution, you
must complete a minimum of 25 percent of the course credit at the Kaplan Higher
Education institution from which you will graduate.
