A dual degree student whose home school isn\u2019t Ross would be subject to their home school\u2019s transfer credit policy, however transferred business credit would still not be applied to their degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important<\/strong>: Credits earned from coursework completed concurrently during a time that overlaps with the Fall or Winter terms after starting at the Ross School of Business will not be accepted for transfer credit.  Students should not enroll concurrently with another college or university while enrolled in a regular term at UM Ross School of Business.&nbsp; BBA students are expected to be registered <strong>only <\/strong>at UM Ross School of Business during the Fall and Winter terms.&nbsp; Ross School of Business will only accept transfer credit that comes from an accredited U.S. school of record.&nbsp; <em>Note<\/em>: the only exception to this policy is credit for the equivalent of ECON 102 at the London School of Economics, England, which does not need a U.S. school of record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to Take<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Determine Equivalency<\/strong><br>The Ross School of Business requires external coursework to have an existing evaluation in the <a href=\"https:\/\/transfercredit.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/\">Transfer Credit Equivalency Database<\/a> to be eligible for transfer credit. For courses that do not have an existing evaluation in the TCE, please see the instructions above under the &#8220;Guidelines for Transfer Credit&#8221; header.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Submit a BBA Transfer Credit: Preliminary Approval Form<\/strong><br>Prior to enrolling in a course, students are responsible for submitting a completed <a href=\"https:\/\/rossweb.bus.umich.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/bba-transfer-credit-approval-form-2025.pdf\">BBA Credit Transfer Preliminary Approval Form<\/a> to <a href=\"mailto:bbacrediteval@umich.edu\">bbacrediteval@umich.edu<\/a>, in order to verify that the course is eligible to transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Provide In-Person Verification (Fall 2019 and Earlier)<\/strong><br>Prior to the Winter 2020 term, certain courses required&nbsp;in-person verification in order to be eligible to transfer. This included&nbsp;all Math, Economics, Chemistry, and Physics courses. In-person verification is met with a syllabus from the course from the semester in which it was taken. This syllabus should be submitted as a PDF file to <a href=\"mailto:bbacrediteval@umich.edu\">bbacrediteval@umich.edu<\/a> prior to the first day of the class.&nbsp;<strong>Important<\/strong>: Effective Winter 2020 and beyond,&nbsp;classes taken outside of UM Ann Arbor that were previously required to be taken in-person in order to be eligible for transfer will be accepted in an online format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Submit an Official Transcript<\/strong><br>Upon completion of the course, students are responsible for having an official transcript sent directly to the Ross Registrar\u2019s Office by the institution in which the course was completed.

The University of Michigan is a large and decentralized campus, and other units may not share or communicate the receipt of official transcripts with our office. If you have sent a transcript to the wrong address, please send an email to <a href=\"mailto:bbacrediteval@umich.edu\">bbacrediteval@umich.edu<\/a>, letting us know where the transcript was from, when it was sent, and which office or address it was sent to. We will do our best to locate it, however, you may be asked to order a new transcript if it cannot be found.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where do I send Guest Student Applications\/Transient Forms?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ross Registrar&#8217;s Office is unable to complete&nbsp;guest&nbsp;student application&nbsp;forms, as they require a higher level of authorization than we are able to provide.
