Expecting College Credits?

Follow the steps below to ensure your academic credit comes with you to UConn. Until credits post to your UConn transcript, your Adivsor will not be able to confirm equivalencies. To ensure no duplicate credits are attempted, Advisors always recommend that you do avoid enrolling in anything for which you may already have credit in your first term.

  • Double check that your score(s) qualifies for credit. Grades and grade points do not transfer, credits will be reflected with a “T” grade for “transfer” with no impact on GPA.
  • If you earned a credit-bearing score, be sure your scores were sent to UConn. When you originally took the AP exam(s) you had the opportunity to send one free score report. If you did not add UConn at that time, you need to contact CollegeBoard and have your scores sent to UConn's Office of Undergraduate Admissions. If you are not sure, contact CollegeBoard.
  • If scores are sent in early summer, credits tend to post in early/mid-August to your UConn transcript. Check your UConn transcript in StudentAdmin to confirm they have posted (the credits will be listed on top, under your “Undergraduate Record” but before your registered courses). If sent later in the summer, it may take extra time to post. If they do not post, follow up with UConn Admissions and CollegeBoard until they do.
