College credits are evaluated based on previous colleges’ accreditation statuses, course contents and
applicability to our ktech degree program. Credits from some specialized institutions may not be
acceptable.
Permission to transfer credits from other institutions requires approval from the Curriculum Committee
and Department Chair.
Credits must be earned from an accredited institution.
Credits will be transferred for courses similar in content and scope to courses offered by ktech and
passed with a grade of “C-” or better. Credit for short term courses are not to be transferred from
another institution. Courses taken pass/fail will not be eligible for transfer.
Credits transferred from other institutions will become a part of the student's official record, but
grades will not be placed on the transcript nor used in determining the student's cumulative grade
point average (CGPA).
Transfer students (Non-matriculated students) may transfer a maximum of 30 non-ktech semester credits
hours for use toward the Diploma degree.
Students who matriculate at ktech as freshmen may transfer a maximum of 10 non-residence credits
hours.
Students who matriculate with fewer than 10 transfer credits hours may transfer additional
non-residence credits hours to complete the remaining of the 10 pre-matriculation credits hours.
However, students who matriculate with 10 or more pre-matriculation credits (fewer than 30 transfer
credit hours) are not allowed to transfer additional non-residence credits hours toward their degree
requirements.
Matriculate students may not take the same course at another institution (for the purpose of transfer)
which they have already received credit for completing at ktech.
Matriculate students may not transfer courses from another institution when the equivalent course is
offered during the same semester at ktech.
Transfer credits may not be more than 7 years old. Any exceptions to this time limit must be obtained
in writing from the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
