Course Articulation and Transfer
While most courses taken at a regionally accredited college or university are transferable, many issues impact how courses apply to a given degree program. ASU does not evaluate transfer credits in advance of an offer of admission. ASU accepts college-level (not remedial) courses in which you have earned a grade of C (4.0=A) or better from regionally accredited institutions. It is up to the college of your major to determine how transferable courses fulfill degree requirements for your ASU major. You may transfer up to 64 credits from a regionally accredited two-year college. And, while there is no limit to the number of courses that you may transfer from a regionally accredited, four-year institution, university policies determine the number and type of ASU credits you need to earn your ASU degree. Every candidate for a baccalaureate degree is required to earn a minimum of 30 semester hours in resident credit courses at the ASU campus from which the student will graduate.

Transfer Course Evaluation
If you are transferring from any in-state community college or university, have your transcript(s) sent to ASU for an evaluation. Once this is completed, you may schedule an advising appointment with your advisor.

Schedule an Advising Appointment
Once your courses have been evaluated, you can schedule an advising appointment online.

Transfer workshops
At the transfer workshop, you will learn your next step to transfer to ASU regardless of where you are in the process. You will learn more about majors in Chemistry and Biochemistry and how they relate to pre-health professional schools (like Medical School, Pharmacy School, etc.), as well as careers in Chemistry and Biochemistry. click here to see upcoming workshop days and sign-up.

Advising Checklist
We ask that students bring the following information to advising sessions:

  • A list of questions you have for your advisor
  • A tentative class schedule if you plan to discuss registration
  • Any academic plans you have made
  • Sun Card (ASU Identification Card)

Immunizations (Required Vaccine)
The measles vaccine (MMR) is the only required vaccination at ASU. Please submit your MMR records to the Student Health and Wellness Center located at the ASU Campus Health Service Bldg. Without submitting your records to the Student Health and Wellness Center, you will not be able to register for classes. For more information, please call (480) 965-3346.

  • To request an override for a Chemistry or Biochemistry course if you have taken the prerequisite(s) at another college or university, fill out the Prerequisite Override Form.
  • DARS
    (Degree Audit Reporting System)
    The DARS audit is available through your My ASU. In order for a DARS audit to be accurate, all transfer courses must have been officially evaluated by ASU.
