Policy

Restrictions due to Travel Warnings

UNH policy prohibits study abroad in countries for which a State Department travel warning is in effect.
No UNH credit or transfer credit will be awarded and financial aid is not available.
For a list of travel warnings, please consult www.state.gov/travel.

Be a matriculated UNH student with a declared major.
Have earned at least 32 semester hours of credit (at least 12 of which must have been earned at UNH at the baccalaureate level.
Have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5.
Be in good standing with the Student Conduct System.

Only a course with a grade of C (or its equivalent) or better will be accepted for transfer credit from another institution.
Credit will not be awarded for courses that review or repeat those taken at UNH or another institution per the University’s Repeated Course Rule.
You may transfer credit from another institution that has a UNH-approved study abroad program. The grade received in transferred course work will appear on your official transcript, but will not affect the UNH grade point average.
Credit will not be awarded for language study which is part of a study abroad orientation.
A course taken for 3 semester hours at another institution will be worth 3 credits in transfer to UNH. Courses measured in quarter hours, term hours, or course units will be converted to semester hours to determine the UNH credit award. The conversion process may affect whether a course will meet UNH standards for General Education or major requirements; a course must be valued at least 3 semester hours to be used to satisfy general education, major, or minor credit.
Any UNH student who is ineligible for participation in a UNH-managed/UNH-approved study away program and who enrolls in a non-UNH study away program may not transfer credits earned in that program to his or her UNH degree.
