Advising in the BCET
Transfer Students in the BCET
The University accepts credit from regionally accredited colleges and universities within the United States, and from selected schools located outside the United States. Credit also may be granted for military training and experience.
Any student that completes basic training and submits a DD214, will receive credit for CRIM 298 and CRIM 498 in addition to the PE and possible elective credits they already receive.
Effective Summer 2023 and forward:
Students who enter ISU with 75-89 credits will need to complete 12 credit hours in Foundational Studies. Students will need to complete courses in the following categories: JR Composition, Global Perspectives, and Cultural Diversity, Ethics and Social Responsibility, and the Upper Division Integrative elective. If students have already completed any of these categories via transfer, they may complete 300/400-level courses within any Foundational Studies category to meet the total number of FS credit hours required.
Students who enter ISU with 90 credits will need to complete 9 credit hours in Foundational Studies. Students will need to complete courses in the following categories: JR Composition, Ethics, and Social Responsibility, and the Upper Division Integrative elective. If students have already completed any of these categories via transfer, they may complete 300/400-level courses within any Foundational Studies category to meet the total number of FS credit hours required.
For more information about ISU’s transfer process and procedures, please visit Transfer Central.
Please use the Transfer Equivalency Search Tool to plan how transfer work will apply to requirements at Indiana State.
Incoming transfer credit will not be posted to MySAM unless the student has confirmed intention to attend ISU with the Office of Admissions or unless you have signed up for Transfer Student Orientation
Associate Degrees Waivers
If the student has earned an Associate of Arts (A.A.), Associate of Science (A.S.), or Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree, they will be granted a waiver that applies to several of ISU’s Foundational Studies/General Education requirements.
ISU offers two distinct waivers: one awarded to students who have earned an A.A. or an A.S. degree, and another awarded to students who have earned an A.A.S. degree. Associate degrees with titles other than these will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
The courses waived in each of these cases, as well as the courses waived for General Education Core Transfers, can be viewed in the table below.
Advisement Pin
Continuing students, in good standing, who have completed at least 60 hours are not required to use a PIN in order to register for classes.
All students new to ISU and continuing students who have completed fewer than 60 hours require a PIN in order to register for classes.
Honors students, student athletes, and students registered with the Accessibility Resource Office also have a PIN regardless of classification.
An advising appointment is required for all students needing a PIN number.
