Admission of Transfer Students to Doctoral Programs
Candidates for admission as transfer students to doctoral programs will be considered if they meet the conditions presented in the section “Admission Requirements for Doctoral Programs.” Candidates must request that their university of origin send their official transcript to the officer or office indicated in the section of “Admissions Procedures for Master’s and Doctoral Programs” so that the credits to be granted for doctoral level studies already taken may be determined.
Students that have begun studies for a doctoral degree in another accredited university may have up to 33% of the credits, of the requirements of the program to which they request transfer, accepted. Courses passed with grades of A or B may be considered for acceptance if they are equivalent to the corresponding courses offered by the doctoral program of Inter American University.
No academic work with credit taken earlier than 10 years or more before will be considered for acceptance. The expiration norm for doctoral courses will be applied to such courses.
