How do I find out if Ball State will accept my previous graduate courses as transfer credits?
• To be considered for transfer credit, the credit must be from graduate level courses in which the student earned a grade of B or better (not a B-) from an accredited institution. Also, there is a six-year timeframe for completing all coursework applied to a master’s degree, and this includes transfer credits. Therefore, any courses taken prior to 6 years before the date of graduation from our master’s program would not be eligible, or would become “stale.” The decision regarding how transferred credits might be used to satisfy particular program requirements is made by our Graduate Admissions Coordinator and Department Chair, Dr. Ray Shackelford.
