Credit Transfer
Most international colleges and universities accept credits from the MISU LMU. However, each institution has its policy regarding credit acceptance from other institutions. We strongly recommend that students consult their academic adviser and professor to receive credit transfer approval before applying to the MDH Winter School. Students who want to transfer credits to their home universities should print out all documents, contact the professor or study abroad adviser, and ask for credit and grade approval.
