Important Transfer Information:
Only courses with a “C-” or higher will be considered for transfer credit
Quarter credits transfer at two-thirds credit, i.e. 90 quarter credits = 60 semester credits (Junior class standing). Students planning on entering Pacific’s health profession programs or majoring in the sciences and wanting to transfer some of their general science sequences need to be aware that not all science classes transfer as Health Professions prerequisites or into a major. Those planning on taking any chemistry or physics at Pacific should have previously taken Math through pre-
calculus. Contact Pacific’s Advising Center for additional course planning information. At least 124 semester hours are required for graduation from Pacific. Thirty of the last 40 semester hours must be taken at Pa-
cific University. No more than 52 semester hours in a single department may be counted toward graduation. Some exceptions do apply – please contact Pacific University for more information. It is best to transfer introductory coursework in your major and take advanced coursework in your major at Pacific. Contact Pacific’s Advising Center for recommended introductory coursework
in your major. Credit will not be given for experiential learning, life experience, practicums, vocational, career/college exploration types of
courses.
