St. Thomas now accepts the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC)! Transfer students who complete the MnTC will satisfy almost all core curriculum requirements here.
There are a lot of ways for you to earn college credits – advanced placement tests, community colleges classes and courses from other four-year institutions. And as long as the courses are coming from a regionally accredited institution, they'll likely transfer. The bigger question is how. Will they come in as requirements for our core curriculum, your major or as enhanced courses (electives)?
For a comprehensive credit evaluation, we encourage you to contact your admissions counselor. They can give you an unofficial degree evaluation that explains our core and major field requirements and estimates how long it might take you to graduate from St. Thomas.
Notice: Current St. Thomas students must speak with their academic counselor to learn about the pre-approval process for transfer courses. Academic Counseling & Support can be reached at (651) 962-6300.
Our transfer credit tool will help to determine how your college credits from other institutions will transfer. This could include PSEO, dual-credit courses, College in the Schools and more.

Generally, the University of St. Thomas accepts liberal arts courses taken at a regionally accredited college or university if the final grade was a C- or higher.
Courses are evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if they are equivalent to any of our core curriculum requirements or a student’s major field requirements. If there is no direct match to a class required in either of these two areas, the class will transfer in as an enhanced course (elective).
