Transfer Credits
If you transfer to Salem State, you must complete successfully a minimum of 30 credit hours here in order to receive the baccalaureate degree from the college. All curriculum requirements within your major must be met. Department chairs will review all transfer credit applications and have final approval of all transfer credits awarded.
The cumulative GPA for transfer students will be determined solely on the basis of courses completed at Salem State or through NECCUM. Also, the cumulative GPA used to determine graduation with honors will be based on a minimum of two academic years of credit earned at Salem State. Transfer students who have had the equivalent of two or more years of full-time study elsewhere will be required to conform to the regular requirements of Salem State.
