<p>Yeah, this is a great question.</p>
<p>I’m fairly an uber n00b when it comes to transfer threads, but I think the most logical thing that the admissions counselors would do is see if the student applied for transfer admission has fulfilled the recommended coursework for the school/degree. This would take up about 30-45 credits. The other 15 credits or so would most likely be applied to electives or to other requirements, though I think that the student may have some say as to which credits may transfer over and then the credits that must be retaken by the student at the university.</p>
<p>Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, I’m surprised this question hasn’t gotten many replies, despite the fact that it may be considered as amateur.</p>
