Transfer Coursework
Once enrolled at the university, students intending to take coursework at another institution should first consult with an academic advisor. With few exceptions degree-level courses from accredited institutions, as defined under Transfer Admission, will transfer with credit to the university. However, a faculty-approved articulation decision is needed to identify transferred courses that will apply toward major requirements and prior approval must be obtained from an advisor to use transferred courses toward general education requirements. Course articulation for more than 1,900 colleges and universities is available on the university's transfer course articulation web site.
To transfer credit to the university, students should request that official transcripts, including grades for all courses, be sent to the Office of Admissions, University at Buffalo, 15 Capen Hall, Buffalo, NY 14260-1660.
Students must take a minimum of 30 credit hours in residence at the University at Buffalo campus to obtain a UB degree.
