At CU Denver, we believe institutions of higher education should meet students where they are, no matter where they started. That is why we work to make higher education as affordable, accessible, and effective as possible for everyone, which empowers students with college credits to transfer into our university flexibly and seamlessly.
A National Leader on Transfer
In partnership with CU Denver Chancellor Michelle Marks, the American Council on Education convened a National Task Force on the Transfer and Award of Credit to focus on improving the recognition of college-level learning acquired at another institution. Outlined in their new report, this more flexible approach would maximize the application of credits to satisfy specific degree requirements.
