The University at Buffalo reserves the right to evaluate all credit-bearing courses.

All credit-bearing courses from accredited institutions of higher learning are considered transferable to the University at Buffalo; the grades earned in these courses are used in overall GPA calculations. The term "accredited," as used here, refers to the following regional accreditation organizations:

• MSA/CHE, Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools/Commission of Higher Education
• NEASC, New England Association of Schools and Colleges
• NCA, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
• NASC, Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges
• SASC-Comm. on Coll., Southern Association of Schools and Colleges-Commission on Colleges
• WASC-Sr., Western Association of Schools and Colleges-Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges
• WASC-Jr., Western Association of Schools and Colleges-Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges

Credit courses from institutions with other than regional accreditation are evaluated for transfer purposes on a case-by-case basis.
