Over 89% of our students are transfers, so our team are experts at maximizing your transfer credit value. 

Whether you’re currently attending another college, have been out of school for years, or you've just completed an associate degree program, transferring into an online bachelor's degree program is streamlined at UNH CPS.

Getting Started with the Transfer Credit Process

First and foremost, you should choose a program and review its degree requirements. Complete program requirements can be found in the course catalog.

• Community college transcripts or transcripts for any college-level coursework completed at another four-year institution.  
• Request military training transcripts - Joint Services Transcript (JST) and Community College of the Air Force Transcripts
• Standardized or equivalency test scores 
• Professional training programs or certificates 
• Official transcripts can be e-mailed to admissions.cps@unh.edu or mailed to UNH CPS Admissions, 88 Commercial St, Manchester, NH 03101

Once you’ve been accepted to your program, you should follow up with your advisor to discuss your transfer credits. Your advisor can help ensure that you’re receiving the maximum amount of transfer credits applicable toward your degree program.  

Getting Help with the Transfer Credit Process 

If you have questions about the transfer credit process or how your unique credits and experience may carry over to UNH CPS, you can request to speak with an advisor for assistance. 

Transfer Equivalency System (TES) 

The UNH College of Professional Studies has a Transfer Equivalency System (TES) that you can use to determine how your credits and professional experience will transfer over to the school. 

• TES assesses traditional college courses as well as professional licenses, certifications, workplace training, and College-level exams such as CLEP, DSST, AP, Straighterline, Sophia Learning, and more.  
• TES is intended as a planning tool for your next steps in the transfer process; it is not an official evaluation of your transfer credit. An official course evaluation will be completed once you apply for admission to a degree program. 
• If you have specific experience or credits that you’re not able to find in TES, but believe it may still be eligible for transfer credit to UNH CPS, reach out to an advisor.
