Towson University accepts transfer credit and has policies for evaluating credit earned at other institutions, including credit by examination in some cases.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on TU'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. Towson University transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
