As part of the application process, transfer students must submit an official transcript from each institution of higher education at which credit was earned. First-year students who completed college courses while in high school, through dual-credit programs such as Running Start and College in the High School or through direct enrollment at a college or university, also must submit official transcripts from each institution at which credit was earned. These college-level transcripts are not required from first-year students until after they have been admitted to SPU.
Official transcripts will be used to award credit for past college-level coursework and to determine placement in some advanced courses.
Credit for approved standardized exams will be awarded based on official score reports sent directly from the testing program, using SPU’s credit-granting criteria.
