Course Work from Non-accredited Schools

Course work completed at non-accredited colleges or universities will be evaluated when individuals apply for admission. The evaluation will determine which courses will apply to Rockford University general education, major or minor requirements. When students complete a minimum of 12 semester hours of course work at Rockford University with a grade of “C” or better (grades of “C–” are not acceptable) in all courses attempted, the approved course work from the non-accredited institution(s) will be accepted and applied to students’ Rockford University degrees or majors.

Students may also validate course work from non-accredited institutions for a specified number of hours by acceptable scores on tests recognized by the university for such purposes. (See College Level Examination Program (p. 42).)
