School of Education, Counseling Psychology and Pastoral Ministries

Comparing Transferring, Waiving, Challenging

Students who successfully transfer a class receive full credit for that class and the
units are counted toward graduation.

Students who successfully challenge a class receive a notation on their transcripts
indicating the units and a grade for the challenged class.

Students who waive a class have proven competency in a particular course area,
and a notation is made in their file to this effect; waived classes are not listed on Santa
Clara transcripts, and no grade is given for the waiver.
