  • Credits will be accepted only for courses in which the student earned a C or higher grade.
  • Credits for vocational/technical courses or remedial courses numbered below 100 will not be accepted.
  • Students transferring 30 or more credits to NWC must complete their final 30 credits at NWC in order to earn a degree (B.A. or B.S.N.) from Northwestern.
