International Transfer Credit

International Transfer Credit Process

Students who have completed college-level (post-secondary) classes at an institution abroad will need to follow the below steps if they wish to have their credits transferred to NJIT:

  1. Send official transcripts (both in the original language and in English) from your issuing institution directly to NJIT's Office of University Admissions (admissions@njit.edu).

     

  2. Contact a Foreign Credential Evaluation Service to request a course-by-course evaluation of your academic work.

  3. To initiate the transfer credit evaluation, you must complete the NJIT International Transfer Credit Request Form for the course(s) to the academic department responsible for the subject. You will be able to submit one request for up to five courses that fall under the same subject area which will be evaluated by faculty evaluators from the department of the course.

    • E.g., for transfer credit for Calculus I, the mathematics department must review the syllabus and course description for the Calculus course.

    • If you wish to receive transfer credit for your courses, you must upload a course description and course syllabi (translated into English) issued by a NACEs-approved member after submitting the transfer credit request form

      • If the syllabi are in a foreign language, they must be translated into English utilizing a Certified Translation process.

      • Certified Translation organizations (NJIT is not affiliated with any of these companies and you are free to choose other agencies):

  4. Review your transfer credit evaluation.

    • You will receive a Transfer Credit Evaluation (TCE) to your NJIT email once your transfer credits have been processed.

    • Additionally, you can check your NJIT Highlander Pipeline for transfer credits.

  5. The whole process can take between 1 and 2 months from start to finish, so please plan accordingly.

 

International Transfer Credit Policies

  • Course equivalencies: Students requesting transfer credit for specific NJIT course equivalencies need to include detailed course descriptions (translated in English) with their transcript.

  • Grades: Students must have earned the equivalent of a grade of C or better in order for the course to be transferable to NJIT.

  • English Language Courses: Credit is not awarded for coursework in English language.

  • International Baccalaureate: NJIT grants transfer credit for IB courses at the Higher level completed with grades of 5 or higher (for further details, please go here.)
