Transferred credits are not considered resident credits. Credits earned through examination (IB, CLEP, AP, proficiency exams, etc.) or prior learning assessment are not considered in residence and therefore may not be used to satisfy the University's residency requirements. Credits earned from courses taken at other ACTC institutions during January term and in the summer are transfer credits and do not count toward residency.

Students are responsible for meeting all residency requirements, regardless of the number and type of courses that are transferred to St. Catherine University. The approval to transfer a course or courses in no case supersedes residency requirements.

For specific residency requirement information, see the Graduation Requirements, Baccalaureate Major Requirements and Minors sections of this catalog.
