TRANSFER POLICY
TRANSFER POLICY
Credit and course waivers (per the EPC 7/22/93 Waived Courses Policy - stated below) may be awarded to students who, prior to enrollment at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) College of Pharmacy, have completed courses judged equivalent to comparable courses in the UIC College of Pharmacy curriculum. If a student would like to enroll in a course at another institution as a substitute for a UIC course, while attending the UIC College of Pharmacy, prior approval (per EPC policy) for the course waiver must be obtained. Waived courses and the subsequent credit received will appear on the student's transcript as transfer course credit.
