To search for transfer courses with Saint Joseph's University equivalencies, please consult our Transfer Equivalency System (TES).

This database should be used as a guideline. Equivalencies are subject to change, are not guaranteed, and may count differently depending on a student’s degree program. Certain institutions and courses may not appear in our database. This does not mean that the courses will not transfer; only that they have not previously been presented for evaluation.
