Exchange Program Credit Conversions

The charts below are intended to assist students studying abroad through the Coggin College of Business at one of 老澳门资料's exchange partner universities.  Each institution has its own credit system which must be translated into 老澳门资料's credit system.  While this is a general guide, credits awarded by 老澳门资料 for specific courses may vary slightly by college or discipline.  Students should contact their study abroad advisor and refer to their individual learning agreements for official credit conversions.

These conversion charts are based on input from 老澳门资料 partner universities and , and they are only valid for 老澳门资料 students transferring courses back from an exchange program at a 老澳门资料 partner university, through the Coggin College of Business.  Click the subheadings below to view details.
