Requesting a Credit Transfer Evaluation

Students must contact each of their previous college(s)and request that one official copy of their academic transcripts be sent directly to Northwest Indian College, Office of Admissions.

Students must obtain a Transfer Evaluation Request form from Northwest Indian College, Office of Admissions, or online through JICs, complete the form and return it to the Office of Admissions. The form must indicate the student’s program of study; should the student change programs, a new evaluation may be needed since credits may transfer differently depending on the degree program.

Evaluation results will be mailed to the student and usually takes 4-6 weeks. Once the evaluation is received, it is recommended that the student make an appointment with his/her academic advisor to discuss how the transfer credits may apply toward their degree.

For transfer of military credits, students must complete the Transfer Evaluation Request form and submit an official copy of their AARTS or SMART transcript. NWIC follows the American Council on Education recommendations for transfer of military credit.

Students with international transcripts must request an evaluation from an outside professional foreign credit evaluation service. Official Evaluations must be submitted to NWIC.
