Hi! I am currently in the process of applying to Howard University for next fall. I have read some horror stories about students credits not transferring, and I guess I was just wondering if I should take that into account? I already know some credits in general may not follow a student when transferring schools, but will a significant amount hurt rather than help? I have been at a CC for two years now, and I have other schools on my list but I would also really like to go to Howard. If anyone can help me out with this that would be great. Thanks in advance!
If a lot of students from your CC end up at Howard, the transfer advisor at your CC should be able to help you find out about this. Other than that, you need to ask the people at Howard. They should be able to give you an estimate of the transferrability of your coursework.
Did you use their transfer credit equivalency tool? That should tell you all you need to know.
