CollEgE CREdit
(Further details and regulations are given in Appendix A and
Appendix B of this Catalog.)
UMUC will not award credit for courses that repeat work
done elsewhere. Students who have earned credit at other
colleges or universities are responsible for determining
whether courses they plan to take at UMUC would duplicate
any previously earned credit. Students who are in doubt
should consult a UMUC Europe academic advisor before
registering. For more information, students can consult the
UMUC Europe online Articulation Guide at
artguide.ed.umuc.edu, which lists articulations for many
colleges and universities along with exams and scores that are
accepted for credit with UMUC.

A student who has done satisfactory work in UMUC Europe
is encouraged to enroll in any of the regularly scheduled terms
elsewhere within UMUC without having to be readmitted.
Because faculty and courses in UMUC Europe and UMUC
Asia meet the same academic standards as those for UMUC
Stateside, courses offered overseas carry resident credit
identical to that earned on the home campus.
A student may earn resident credit toward an associate’s
or bachelor’s degree entirely through study with UMUC
Europe or in a combination of study with UMUC Asia and/
or UMUC Stateside. When departing Europe, students may
request to have their records transferred to UMUC Stateside
or UMUC Asia by using the online Division Transfer Request
form through MyUMUC (my.umuc.edu).
