Assessment of Prior Learning

You might be closer to your Drexel degree than you think! Credit is granted for documented prior learning, not experience.  The prior learning must be assessed and approved by the Goodwin College.  Drexel University provides assessment of prior learning in the following areas:

Transfer credit from other institutions

Students are evaluated individually and granted credit for courses completed at accredited colleges that are the equivalent of courses offered at Drexel. Goodwin Academic Advisors for Online Undergraduate Program Students can conduct unofficial transfer credit reviews for anyone interested in our online undergraduate degree completion programs. To have your transcripts reviewed, you will need:

• Transcripts from each college or university you attended
• Any certifications you have achieved
• Completed Goodwin College Transfer Credit Evaluation Form 

Please fax all transcripts/certifications along with the Transfer Credit Evaluation form to Goodwin Academic Advising at 215-895-4988.
