Ph.D. Degree: Transferring Credits

For more information regarding transfer credits, please refer to the Graduate Student Handbook .

How to petition for transfer credit:

First, consult your advisor to see if specific courses qualify, then you must petition the graduate group chair after you have begun full-time study at Penn. Along with your petition form, attach the transfer institution’s catalog course descriptions, a transcript copy of the courses, and your advisor’s approval to your request.
