Course Transferability

The Desoto Center

The University of Mississippi has a student-friendly course transfer policy.

If you recently earned your associate's degree from a community college, you'll be glad to know that UM-Tupelo partners with community colleges to ensure that your academic coursework plugs right into a UM bachelor's degree program. You're ready to take the next step!

If you have accumulated academic credit and would like to check out the transferability of a course online, visit our UM Transfer Course Equivalencies webpage. You can search by institution for a particular course to learn if it will transfer and how it is referenced at Ole Miss.

However, the best way to see where you stand is to visit us at the Advanced Education Center in Tupelo for a one-on-one consultation with one of our counselors. We'll answer your questions about course transferability, financial aid, admissions, and program requirements at UM-Tupelo. We'll review your transcript, help clarify what credits may transfer, and guide you through the transfer process.

Call (662) 844-5622 or email us. We're here to help you.
