Does Richmond Offer Transfer Credit for Online Courses?

<p>Hi guys. </p>

<p>I am applying for transfer admission to the University of Richmond and I am wondering if UR gives transfer credit for online courses. My current university only offers a world music course online, so I'm curious as to whether I'll get credit for it.</p>

<p>I need to know by Wednesday morning whether or not I should enroll in it. </p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

According to the transfer site, you can call admissions and they will give you an estimated evaluation about whether a course will transfer. I don’t think the problem will be with it being online if it doesn’t transfer, but rather if there is an equivalent course at U of R.</p>

<p>@guineagirl96 Thank you! I emailed my regional admissions counselor a few weeks ago, but she never responded. Judging from your profile picture, you go to Richmond. If you don’t mind my asking, why did you choose UR?</p>

<p>Im an incoming freshman. I am a richmond artist scholar, which was a big reason I chose the school, in addition to my ability to pursue both math/cs and music, and the cafeteria.</p>

<p>@guineagirl96 l want to study finance, Arabic and Middle Eastern studies, but my current college only offers one (finance), so I’m hoping to transfer. What do you hope to do after graduation?</p>

<p>I want to go into cryptography/cryptanalysis which basically entails a masters in CS with a professor that works in that field.</p>

<p>That’s awesome! You could work for the NSA! </p>

<p>I’ve written my “Tell us about spiders.” essay at least 4 times. I’m trying to focus on one quality about Richmond that I really like, but I’m having trouble narrowing it down. </p>
