PLA credit is never guaranteed until a Faculty Subject Matter Expert has reviewed a submission and any approved credits are applied to a student’s degree progress report. Credits must be earned at the same degree level in order to be applied. Additional restrictions may apply. See the UAGC Academic Catalog for full transfer policies.

Averages are for students who entered into each academic level during the 2024-25 academic year and who transferred in credits.

See the Undergraduate General Transfer Credit Provisions and Limitations for more information.
