No. It is not possible to transfer credits into our program; however, if you are admitted into the program, you may take the qualifying exam in August or September (date to be determined). If you pass the qualifying exams, you would not need to complete the applicable core course work but you may still be required to take some of the electives (to fulfill field course requirements and required number of electives).
