ADDITIONAL GENERAL EDUCATION TRANSFER GUIDELINES:
• All students at the time of matriculation, who have completed fewer than 28 semester hours of transferable course work,
will be evaluated for fulfillment of La Verne's General Education Breadth Area requirements on a course-by-course basis.
• No course can be used to meet more than one Breadth Area Requirement
• NO course will be considered for transfer credit unless a grade of C- or better was received.
• Students admitted Fall 2013 and forward may transfer a maximum of 88 semester hours. If a student wishes to fulfill GE or
major requirements through transfer courses after having already met or reached the 88 unit limit, he or she may transfer the
credit for subject area fulfillment, but will not be awarded additional semester hour credit. The particular GE Requirement will
be fulfilled by a 0-unit course marker. There is no limit to the number transfer credits that will be accepted by the University
for students admitted prior to Fall 2013.
The Office of the Registrar reserves the right to alter and revise the contents of this transfer
agreement plan at anytime.
