Transfer Policies 1. All transfer credit requests must be submitted, complete with all official documents for the review during the first quarter of attendance. A $50 transfer credit processing fee must accompany all transfer credit requests. 2. Transfer credit may be granted for course-work outside a Traditional Oriental Medicine curriculum from an accredited institution provided it is documented by official transcripts. Transfer courses must be comparable to courses offered at ETCOM. Course work must have received a passing grade of "C" or better in order to be considered for transfer credit. 3. Transcripts from foreign countries must be translated into English and evaluated by a credentials evaluation service (such as www.wes.org or www.aceil.com). 4. Transferable courses must have the same contents as ETCOM courses for which transfer credit is being applied. The Academic Dean will determine if this is the case. 5. Up to 100% transfer credit may be granted for ECTOM courses in basic science and Western clinical sciences from an accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ACAOM) or regionally accredited college. 6. Up to 100% transfer credit may be granted for ECTOM courses in Acupuncture, Herbology, and Oriental Medicine for coursework taken at an acupuncture school approved by the California Acupuncture Board and accredited by ACAOM. 7. Up to 100% transfer credit may be granted toward ECTOM clinical training requirements from an Acupuncture Board approved and ACAOM accredited institutions. 8. Credit may be transferred for up to 50% of ECTOM requirements in Acupuncture, Oriental Medicine, Herbology and Clinic categories from an ACAOM accredited but non-Acupuncture Board approved school. 9. Regardless of the conditions cited above, transfer students are required to complete one year of the program (48 units) in residence to graduate from Emperor's College. 10. Coursework taken at another institution after admission to Emperor's College is not transferable unless approved in advance in writing by the Academic Dean. 11. Students who have completed coursework at a non-accredited institution may request to take a Challenge Examination for the equivalent course at Emperor's College for which transfer credit is being sought. There is a $100 charge for each Challenge Examination and a passing score of 70% is required for credit. 12. Courses completed more than 10 years before the date of admission cannot be transferred unless the student currently works in a field relevant to the courses.
