Accreditation

Credit is awarded for college-level coursework completed at a U.S. institution of higher education accredited by agencies or associations recognized by the U.S. Department of Education or its equivalent from a foreign institution.

Foreign institutions must be recognized by the Ministry of Education in that country. Courses must be similar in nature and content to courses in our undergraduate curriculum to be transferred. Courses that are remedial, technical, vocational or doctrinal in nature are not transferable to an undergraduate degree. It is the prerogative of the student's UF college to determine how transfer credits apply to a degree. Students should expect to receive 60 transfer credits with an AA degree from a Florida public community/state college.
