Evergreen Valley College follows the guidelines in the Transfer Credit Practices published by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (ACCRAO) to determine which institutions have been granted regional accreditation.

Courses completed at other colleges, which have been granted regional accreditation by ACCRAO, may be evaluated as meeting requirements for graduation and/or general education by submitting the External Transcript Evaluation Request Form. Counselors are available to assist the student in developing a provisional educational plan and provide guidance with course selection. 

Upon evaluation, acceptable transfer units of credit will be posted separately in the upper section of the student’s permanent academic record. 

Transcripts from former institutions that are on file in the Office of Admissions and Records are destroyed three years after the student’s last semester of enrollment at Evergreen Valley College.  Such records shall include, but not be limited to (physical/electronic) student records, employment records and financial records—in compliance with Title 5.
