  • All transfer coursework (if applicable) must be college level; remedial or developmental coursework is not considered college level.
  • All transfer coursework (if applicable) must meet GPA requirements set by Northwood University.
  • Grade Point Averages (GPA) from other institutions do not transfer.
  • Courses completed after the associate’s degree was awarded may be transferable as long as a grade of “C” (2.0) or better has been earned and if applicable to the curriculum. Students transferring without an associate’s degree will have their transcripts evaluated for equivalent Northwood credit. Students in this category will be permitted to transfer equivalent courses and electives with grades of “C” (2.0) or better.
