The Office of Admissions will evaluate the acceptability of transfer of credits taken at regionally-accredited institutions since last enrolled at USF. The college of the student's major will determine which courses are applicable for his/her major. In some instances, exact course equivalents will also be determined by other colleges which offer the same or similar course(s) as a part of their programs of study.

USF recognizes that not every student’s academic record is flawless and that many times students get off to such a poor start that their future academic opportunities are limited. USF can offer many of those students a second chance. The University’s Academic Amnesty policy allows students, who have been engaged in non-academic activities such as work or the military for at least five years and who provide evidence that they might now achieve academic success, to renew their pursuit of baccalaureate degrees without the burden of having to overcome the effects of low grades and low grade-point-averages that reflect academic work attempted years earlier.
Students who believe that the Academic Amnesty policy might apply to their circumstances should contact the Office of Admissions for additional information.
