Probably, but there are steps to take beforehand.

• Will the Course Count? Make sure a transfer course will count toward your degree requirements the way you anticipate. The Transfer Course Guide provides details.
• To get the credits sent to Penn State: Arrange for the other school’s registrar or records office to mail an official transcript to: Office of Admissions, 201 Shields Building, University Park, PA 16802.  Allow several weeks for processing by both the school from which you are transferring credits and by Penn State.  Both may also charge a small processing fee.  If the credits are needed urgently for graduation, see #10 below for the Graduation Information handout.

See Change of Campus for information on the College of Health and Human Development’s Change of Campus Policy. The change of campus request must be initiated at your campus following the procedures at your campus. See the Undergraduate Advising Handbook for more information.

See HHD Entrance to College for information.

In addition to your assigned campus adviser being a great resource, each campus has a HHD Campus College Contact and Referral Representative. See Change of Campus for the link to contact information.

The Office of Student Orientation and Transition Programs provides helpful information to assist with the transition.
