Do grades count from study abroad programs?
All IU administered and co-sponsored programs count the grades in the cumulative GPA. Non-IU programs are transfer credit only so the grades only appear on the internal transcript, not the official one. Nevertheless, students should be reminded that when they apply to graduate school or for jobs they will be required to submit a transcript from all previous institutions where they have studied so they will be accountable for the GPA they earn on an external program.
