HOW DO MY TRANSFER CREDITS IMPACT MY ACADEMIC STANDING?

Transfer credits from other institutions are calculated as part of Satisfactory Academic Progress credit completion rate. Your total cumulative credit completion rate is considered in your academic standing.

Transfer credits from other institutions are not calculated as part of Satisfactory Academic Progress GPA, however, they do count toward the total number of credits attempted which determines what GPA you need to achieve. Only your local cumulative GPA (Minnesota State Mankato GPA) is considered for your academic standing.
