Transfer of Credit
Courses taken for a grade in a non-Tufts program or University, whether domestic
or abroad, can be counted towards the major with approval from the Transfer of
Credit committee, as these are not technically pass-fail courses even though no
grade is listed for them on a Tufts transcript.
The Department will NOT approve transfer of credit for
PSY 32 or any of the advanced laboratories, as these courses must be
taken at Tufts.
To petition for transfer of credit, students must access the
Student
Services WebCenter site and complete the transfer of credit request
form. Students will not receive an immediate decision on their transfer of
credit request; such requests often take up to a month to process and no action
will be taken on a request if a web-link to the full course description is not
provided using WebCenter.
If no web-link can be found, or if the course's description
is in a foreign language, then a hard copy may be submitted instead (translated
into English if necessary). Transfer of credit requests for a related fields
course must go through WebCenter and must be approved by the department in
question. For more information, visit
Undergraduate FAQs.
As of September 1, 2008, Tufts University uses the following
numbers to designate Psychology courses that have been approved
for transfer credit but do not match existing Tufts Psychology
course content:
PSY 310 (non major credit)
PSY 320 (lower level elective credit)
PSY 330 (100/200 level elective credit)
These are the course numbers that could appear on your
transcript, if a course has been approved.
