Students accepted for admission may be granted transfer credit for graduate level courses previously taken at another accredited institution. A maximum of 12 credit hours may be transferred into a M.A. program. A maximum 24 credit hours may be transferred into the Psy.D. program. However, no credit hours may be transferred into a certificate program.

A request for transfer credit is considered only after students have been accepted into a program and have submitted the appropriate paperwork. Graduate courses from regionally accredited institutions that are equivalent to courses required in Adler's degree programs and in which students have earned grades of "B" or better may be considered for transfer credit. Electives and clinical training credits are not eligible for transfer credit. Coursework taken more than five years prior to enrollment will not be accepted for transfer credit. Credit hours granted for transferred courses are based on credit hours granted for the equivalent course at Adler.

Transfers of Credit forms are available from the Registrar's Office. A fee is assessed for each course evaluated for transfer credit eligibility.
