Credit for your credits.
You’ve worked hard to get to where you are today. Earn credit for your credits when you transfer to Minot State
How we accept credits
Minot State will accept and transcribe all courses from institutions recognized by the United States Department of Education from regionally accredited organizations or nationally recognized agencies. Minot State does not accept credits from non-accredited institutions.
All credit hours will be transcribed as semester hours and all transcribed courses calculate as part of the student's cumulative grade point average. Plus, or minus grades are not recorded.
Transfer Equivalency System
You can also check to see if your courses have existing equivalencies through the Transfer Equivalency System. This information is only provided as a guide and does not guarantee that a particular course will be accepted for transfer credit. An official evaluation will be done when your transcript(s) are posted.
Unofficial transcript evaluations
Official transcript evaluations are available for admitted students only. Take advantage of our unofficial transfer review of your general education coursework. To evaluate your program or major transfer courses, please indicate the program or major on the form.
