Prior Learning Assessment/Transfer Credits

Northeastern knows it’s experience that makes the difference. It’s why we work with applicants to determine how we can turn their prior classroom learning and work experience into transfer credit—up to 60 credits.

Here are a couple of transfer credit opportunities for students entering the BS in Analytics:

• Accredited Institutions – Students can transfer previously earned credits (up to 60 credits) from a regionally accredited institution such as a community college.
• Infosys – Students from our partnership with Infosys may qualify for credit from a prior learning assessment (PLA) based on their relevant work experience and on-the-job training.
