About Transfer Credit
If you will be taking classes in the fall based on the recommendation or requirement of your Northeastern academic program, you must make sure the class(es) you are taking during the fall will transfer to Northeastern. Otherwise you will not receive credit for these courses. You can find out which classes have transferred to Northeastern in the past from other institutions with our Transfer Equivalences Web site.
Earning Credit from Advanced Placement (AP) Exams
If you have taken Advanced Placement exams and have received scores of 4 or 5, you may be able to earn credit for the exams you have taken. Please make sure that you have forwarded all AP scores to Admissions in order to find out if you will be able to receive credit for your exams.
