Transferring Credits

Direct Transfer Agreements

PLU accepts transfer degrees from community colleges in Washington (AA-DTA), Oregon (AAOT), and California (AA-T & AS-T). If you complete one of these degrees, PLU will accept your degree as a block of credits, you will be granted automatic junior standing.

Class by Class Equivalency

PLU has a generous credit transfer policy. If a course is similar to one taught at PLU, you will likely be able to transfer credits. To be certain which of your own credits will transfer, apply for admission to PLU (part of the admission review is an official transcript evaluation to assess for transferable credits).
