Core Equivalencies for Transfer Students Core
credits for transfer students are determined by two things:
a student’s specific course work and the total semester
hours transferred in by the student. No core credit is given
for Advanced Placement or College Level Examination Program
course work. Other credit is often given, however for
Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate course
work; please see Advanced Placement and International
Baccalaureate Programs in the
Admission section.

Core Credits Through Study Abroad or as a Transient
Student
Every student attending an Oglethorpe approved semester
or year abroad will receive
credit for one semester of the junior year core – either
Historical Perspectives on the Social Order I or II – the
student may choose.
Once a student enrolls at Oglethorpe, core credit may not
be earned through study as a transient student at other
institutions; for example, no summer school credit from
another university.
