For transfers to PSU, the policy is to accept only two (2) courses (8 units) for transfer credit at the graduate level, and a maximum of thirty-three (33) courses (132 units) for transfer credit at the undergraduate level.

D.B.A. program applicants who have completed equivalent graduate level courses from a U.S. Department of Education recognized educational institution programs in business, management or related fields with a grade of B or higher may, with the approval of the D.B.A. Admissions Committee, have sixteen (16) quarter units transferred into their programs towards Foundation Courses. 

The University does not automatically give credit for courses completed at other institutions; it determines whether credit will be given by evaluating each course and its content. Only equivalent courses are transferable.  A or B grades are required at the graduate level, and grades of C or better at the undergraduate level.

Additional requirements for international students transferring to PSU or changing non-immigrant status:

1. Transfer letter from prior school or attendance letter from prior school;
2. Copy of Form I-20 A-B from prior school;
3. Copy of passport and U.S. Visa stamp;
4. Copy of I-94 Record; and
5. Commitment fee of $2,000 (non-refundable) but applicable to tuition.
