Transfer Equivalencies

Transfer equivalencies determine how courses from other institutions align with our university’s curriculum, ensuring students receive appropriate credit for their previous coursework.

Find Out Which Classes May Transfer to Ole Miss

Use this page to look up which courses could transfer from other schools and universities to the University of Mississippi. If you have any questions, we encourage you to talk to your advisor to discuss your options.

Reminder: If you plan to take a course at another institution and transfer the credit to Ole Miss, you must complete the Permission to Transfer Credit process through your dean’s office to ensure the course is approved. Students who do not receive prior approval risk not being awarded transfer credit if the courses do not equate to UM courses, do not satisfy degree requirements, are not accredited with regional and/or professional accrediting bodies, or conflict with other UM rules.

The Transfer Equivalency card in Experience can also be used to see courses that have been equated for a particular student.
