Submit transcripts

Overview

If you've completed coursework at another college or university, or earned credit through exams like AP or IB, you can submit that information to Stellic. Once reviewed and approved, these credits become part of your academic record and can count toward your degree.

Before you begin

Navigate to your institution's Stellic login page and sign in with your credentials.

Note about Official vs. unofficial transcripts

  • Official transcripts come directly from your previous institution, typically as part of your admissions process. These appear in Stellic automatically—you don't need to upload them.

  • Unofficial transcripts are copies you upload yourself through Stellic.

Note: Some institutions only accept official transcripts for transfer credit evaluation. If your institution requires an official transcript, contact your former institution's registrar's office to request one be sent to your current school.

FAQs

What affects whether my credits transfer?

  • Grade requirements – Most institutions require a minimum grade (typically C or better).

  • Recency – Some courses may have time limits, especially in rapidly changing fields.

  • Credit limits – Institutions typically cap the total transfer credits you can apply.

  • Accreditation – Credits must come from appropriately accredited institutions.

Why didn't all my courses transfer?

Courses may not transfer due to differences in curriculum standards, credit structures, minimum grade policies, or accreditation requirements.

Can I appeal a transfer credit decision?

Yes. Most institutions have an appeals process that may involve providing additional documentation (such as syllabi), faculty review, or administrative review.
