It is the policy of Wichita State University (WSU) to accept all non-remedial course credits earned at a regionally accredited
post-secondary institution. Each academic college or department within WSU determines how those credits apply toward a particular degree program.
There can be a significant difference between what transfers and what counts toward a degree, especially if the courses are vocational in nature.
WSU follows the Kansas Board of Regents Systemwide General Education Program framework. (www.wichita.edu/generaleducation)

To lookup the WSU equivalency for a transfer course:
- Select the Name of the transfer institution.
- Select an individual Subject area abbreviation or * All Subjects
*.
To view the results, select either HTML/Excel
or PDF and click the Submit button.
Courses not listed in the transfer equivalency system have not been previously
evaluated for transfer. To request a course equivalency evaluation,
utilize the WSU Transfer Gateway found at www.wichita.edu/transfer.
A transfer course that has a WSU equivalency course number of 2000, 4000, 6000, or 8000 is counted as an elective.
Some courses with a specific WSU equivalent course will also only count as an elective, depending upon the student’s
program at WSU. The number of elective hours that count toward a degree vary depending upon program requirements.
Effective Term Column
The effective term column indicates the term that equivalency begins; students are given
the equivalency in place for the term they took the course
Tip: If the course is not listed in the drop down list, select
* All Courses *. Some courses must be taken with one or more
other courses in order to be given an equivalency at WSU.
