Florida’s Statewide Course Numbering System helps ensure the ease of transferring credits between participating accredited educational institutions recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Please see the campus Department of Academics for more information.
For students enrolling at, Keiser University College of Golf credit for courses or degrees completed at another institution is subject to approval by the Dean of Academic Affairs. These courses or degrees must be similar in content and duration to those offered in the program for which an applicant has applied. The Dean of Academic Affairs makes a temporary evaluation from unofficial transcripts. However, only courses listed on official transcripts receive permanent official transfer credit. (To grant such credit, Keiser University College of Golf must receive official transcripts mailed directly to Keiser University College of Golf by the previous institution by the end of a student’s first semester.)
Keiser University requires that, at a minimum, a student complete the final 25% of a program through the College. Transfer students are informed in writing of any credits accepted as transferable. Preliminary notification is presented, in most cases, prior to enrollment but in no case later than the end of a transfer student’s first semester. Students are responsible for having official transcripts sent to The College of Golf from their former institution(s).
