Transfer Credits from Other Schools
- Transfer Credit must come from a regionally accredited institution and pass with a C- or higher.
- Transfer work is not calculated into your BYU-Idaho GPA. Any coursework older than 10 years may only be accepted as elective credit.
- International students who want to use credits obtained for approved courses in other schools outside the USA will need to have their transcripts translated into English through a third party.
Transfer Credits from BYUI to Other Schools
- If sending transcripts to another Institution (not CES), yourself, or a third party, see Transcript Request. You will be asked if you attended Ricks College/BYU-Idaho before 1983. Please answer as applicable to you.
- The next part of the question will ask where you would like to send your transcript. Be sure to click "Select" under "Other Recipients" and proceed to the end as prompted. Prices will vary based on the delivery option you choose, see Paper and Electronic Transcripts.
Note: If you are sending transcripts for the first time you will be directed to create an account in the transcript ordering portal.
Transfer Religion Credits

- Must be on an official college transcript (if the course was taken through another CES school such as BYU, BYU–Hawaii, Ensign College, or BYU–Jerusalem).
