Masters that Accepts transfer credits - BethB - 04-11-2021

Hello.

I am look for my husband and daughter on grad programs that accept transfer credits.  They are both in education.  It may be a foreign school.   My daughter has already applied to University of the People.

Thanks for any out of the box thinking.

There aren't a lot of schools that will accept transfer grad credits. Does the degree need to be in education or can it be any master's degree?

Most schools will accept 6 or 9 credits in transfer but typically this is only if the courses you've taken are prettymuch exact copies of courses required by the new school.  Most grad programs are pretty structured and there are very few electives such as are found in undergrad programs.  Not a lot of wiggle room.
