All country versions of SNHU have different requirements, I don't think we know what they are, if they have the info on their website, that's the first thing I would look at... Review the entire thread to re-read my posts #6 and #8, then fill in this addendum and template in your own personal thread. https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

I don't think anyone can tell you for sure beforehand. How that seems to work in many if not all places is that once you are admitted, you ask for credit transfer and responsible department decides. If you only have a couple of credits to transfer, I don't think it is a big deal whether they will accept 6 or 4 or 8? If any problems you can contest the decision to have it re-evaluated.

Hello, as some other internationals wanting to pay a bit less for a degree I ended up on in.snhu.
After talking to legit snhu they told me that the university is legit.


Some people allegedly say we can only transfer 15-20 credits, some other people allegedly saying we need to "wait for our peers" what ever that means, admissions advisor allegedly said we can transfer sophia credits but cannot confirm if we can transfer up to 90 credits in general although their website says it does.
Apparently SNHU cannot control in.SNHU so we cannot complain to them.

So my question is, is someone already registered and did transfers or is in the program?
I see on the waybackmachine that the site is online since may 2023 at first even stating program costs.

My plan is to do 20 courses there to get the latin honours.
So just 60 credits would do for me in.SNHU!
Although doing 2 courses per term wouldn't do it for me, I don't want to wait for anyone... 

Otherwise I am thinking of going to US SNHU and just do 10 courses.

Anyway, does anyone have more info about them?

They should not be mentioning 90 credit transfer on their webpage if they do not actually allow it.

IMHO that information is correct. There is no reason for different rules when it is same university under same accreditation.

I'm interested in that info too. For the record, here is a link to international catalog of SNHU, by which the branches shall abide IMHO, mentioning "For evaluating non-traditional learning experience, SNHU recognizes the services of American Council on Education (ACE) and National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS)."

I don't believe that anything applying to US SNHU would apply for the in.SNHU. 

What might be true right now is : 
You cannot finish faster than 4 years
You cannot transfer 90 credits from anywhere
Your classes will be with people from India and other internationals
I cannot confirm if anyone has a degree from there yet.
Advisors are most of the time clueless so anything said here could be 100% false as well since the information can only be obtained by them at the moment. 


But not being able to transfer 90 credits or graduate sooner is enormous false advertisement.

The link I posted is for international catalog. It doesn't apply to SNHU US, but to students studying with SNHU in their campuses in Vietnam, Malaysia, and for India online (they don't have physical place there yet).

Tangential question, does SNHU have other regional offerings besides those in India?
