Procedure for Requesting Transfer Credit
Requests for transfer credit should be directed in writing to the Ph.D. program.

- Provide official course descriptions for each course submitted for transfer.
- Provide official transcripts.
Official transcripts (for all courses to be transferred from other institutions) must be on file in the Ph.D. in Global Leadership offices before transfer credits will be considered.
