Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Where do the transcripts sent by my old college go?

A: Your transcripts from other colleges and universities are sent to the Office of the Registrar (Warren Hall, Room 528). These transcripts must be in envelopes sealed by the registrar at the other school. You cannot submit official transcripts to the Office of the Registrar.

Q: Will my transfer credits count toward my General Education and degree programs?

A: Credit will be awarded for those courses equivalent to courses offered at JMU in which you have earned a grade of "C" or better. The JMU Office of the Registrar will evaluate your transcript(s) to show the credits accepted by the university. General Education requirements will be waived if you have completed either the Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, or the Associate in Arts and Sciences degree at a Virginia community college. For details, consult the JMU Virginia Community College Transfer Guide. This waiver applies only if you have obtained one of the associate's degrees noted above from a Virginia community college.

Q: What courses will not transfer to the College of Business?

A: The College of Business cannot accept community college courses for courses only taught at the junior or senior level at JMU. Also, we cannot accept business courses from colleges or universities that are not accredited by our international accrediting agency, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

Q: What do I need to submit when I need a transfer credit equivalency form signed? Where can I get a transfer credit form signed?

A: You need to bring in a completed transfer credit form along with a description of the course that you wish to take at another college or university. Generally, you can find the course description on the Web site of the college. If you have a copy of the course catalog, you can bring that with your transfer credit form.

Q: What is e-campus and what does it do?

A: E-campus is the JMU online class registration and student records information system. Students register for classes via e-campus. They can also access their academic records, including their transcript, class schedule, transfer course credit report and demographic information, etc.
