Information About Transfer Credit in Mathematics

Prior approval for transfer credit must be obtained. The course must be taken at a four year college or university, and the course must be comparable to - or at the level of - one offered in our department. Wesleyan does not allow transfer credit for on-line courses. Students majoring in mathematics should note that courses taken elsewhere may not be substituted for either Math 261 (Abstract Algebra) or Math 225 (Real Analysis).

In order to obtain prior approval, please email the following information to the departmental faculty member who decides approval on behalf of DADCOM (the Departmental Advisory Committee):

• Course title and description, including a link to the catalogue and to the range of mathematics courses offered;
• Any additional information available, such as professor, text, syllabus; and
• What mathematics courses, if any, you have taken at Wesleyan.

This information is usually sufficient to determine the appropriateness of the course, although we may have additional questions once the above information is provided.
