Transfer of Credit
All Olin courses have been pre-approved for transfer credit, however, students must fill out Transfer of Credit forms for courses which they wish to apply towards a Major, Minor or distribution requirement.
When the Wellesley Registrar’s Office receives final grade(s) from Olin College, the transfer credit will be awarded if the course(s) were completed with a grade of “C” or higher. The course(s) will appear on the Wellesley transcript with a “TR” grade which means that the credit will be applied toward the degree but that the actual letter grade(s) earned will not appear on the Wellesley transcript and will not be included in the calculation of the cumulative GPA. As with all transfer work, the course(s) must be taken for a letter grade at Olin.
