Transfer of Credit
Any student who, prior to acceptance at Mitchell College has accumulated college credits at another institution must submit transcripts of those credits, prior to acceptance as a degree candidate, if the student wishes to have those credits applied to a Mitchell curriculum. In order to be accepted as transfer credit, a course must have a grade of "C-" or better (except in the case of a repeat course, which must have a grade of "C" or better), fit into the Mitchell curriculum, satisfying a requirement or elective and carry credit from an accredited institution. Credits which are not applicable to the student's curriculum at Mitchell, even though they may otherwise be perfectly acceptable for transfer, will not be accepted. If a student changes majors, it may be necessary to review the original award of transfer credit in reference to the newly selected major. The grades earned for transfer credits cannot in any way be used to calculate the student's grade point average at Mitchell.
Mitchell helps students to develop career action plans early in their college career, whether they plan to earn their associate or bachelor degree, join the work force immediately upon graduation, or continue on for a graduate degree. At Mitchell College, students choose their direction through the use of professional career planners, workshops that identify skills and interests, information sessions and individualized counseling.
