Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on Nazareth's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. Nazareth College of Rochester transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
