For your convenience, Piedmont University provides a guide to understand your transfer credit equivalencies. Please understand that if a course/institution is not listed, it does not mean that we will not accept the credit. We evaluate transfer credit on an individual basis, and this site is constantly being updated. Piedmont University reserves the right to make changes at any time. Transfer evaluations are not official until reviewed by the registrar’s office.
