Transfer Credit Equivalency

This video explains how the Transfer Credit Evaluation team at APUS reviews external coursework to determine if it matches APUS courses and can be awarded equivalency. It outlines the criteria used—such as course level, content overlap, and learning objectives—and explains how non-equivalent credits may still fulfill elective or general education requirements. The video also introduces TED, the Transfer Equivalency Database, which allows students to search previously evaluated courses for transparency and consistency.
