Transcript Review

The following will help explain codes used in determining students’ transfer credit:

  • a grade followed by a % means the course was used to complete a high school course deficiency and cannot count toward degree credit;

  • a letter in parentheses following a course indicates core area at a previous University System of Georgia institution;

  • a course listed with a number followed by XXX means that VSU does not have the exact equivalent course, VSU’s course is at a higher or lower level, or the credit hours do not match closely enough to give the equivalency. This course is an acceptable transfer course, but a student’s advisor must determine how to use it in the program of study if it is not marked as core.

  • a grade of K by a course indicates that the requirement has been satisfied through AP or CLEP scores; however, the student still needs the appropriate hours.

  • Georgia University Systems Requirements Satisfied: each transcript will have a yes or no answer to the following requirements: US History, US Constitution, GA History, GA Constitution.

  • University System Regents’ Testing Program: each transcript will have a “satisfied” or “not satisfied” to the following requirements: Reading and Writing.
