Transfer FAQ: Bachelor’s degree credit requirements

posted in: Free-form

While all of our bachelor’s degree programs require a minimum of 120 credits, you must complete at least 30 of your final 45 credits at USM to earn your bachelor’s degree with transfer credit.

Some majors (or degree programs) require more than 120 credits to earn your bachelor’s degree.

NOTE: We do not include your transfer credits from past institutions in your overall grade point average (GPA) calculation at USM. However, grades from other colleges and universities will appear on your USM transcript.
