How do I get credits for courses taken from a college I previously attended?
If you are seeking a certificate or degree from KCC, you must request official copies of transcripts from your former colleges (except University of Hawai`i system transcripts) be sent to the Kekaulike Information and Service Center (KISC). You must then complete and submit the Transcript Evaluation Request form to KISC (`Ilima 102). The completed evaluation showing the transferred credits and equivalent KCC courses will be posted in MyUH portal and a copy sent to you.
I have previous college credits; do they apply to the paralegal program?
That depends. An official transcript evaluation will determine if transfer credits will be awarded for previous college work. Only courses with a grade of "D" or better may be transferred. Grades received for transferred credits are not computed as part of the Kapi`olani grade point ratio.
How do I get my previous college credits evaluated?
