Ready to transfer your credits? We have put this information here to start your transfer credit process and make sure you don’t miss a step.

Pre-Approval

If you are planning to transfer course credits towards your degree, we highly recommend beginning the transfer credit pre-approval process. While courses delivered by Outlier and credits earned through the University of Pittsburgh tend to transfer well, each institution is different.

We recommend contacting your school’s Registrar or your advisor to see if specific University of Pittsburgh courses will transfer for college-level credit. Also, check with your institution to see if there is a minimum grade requirement for transfer courses.

After Completing Your Course

After your course is finalized, you must wait at least 10 business days to order your transcript. It takes a bit of processing time for your final grade to show up on your University of Pittsburgh transcript.

Head to Your Transcripts Tab

To start your transfer credit process, head to your Transcripts tab in your Account.

Next, click Continue next to the course you want to transfer.

Here, request an official transcript to the institution(s) of your choice. The transcript will be sent from the University of Pittsburgh.

Order Your Transcript

Since you are an Outlier student, make sure to select the top option that says, "I am a former student / graduated before spring 2015, College in High School, or Outlier student:"

You'll be asked to create a Parchment account with your chosen login credentials. Your Outlier credentials are only for your Outlier Account, so you'll need to create an account with Parchment. You do not need a University of Pittsburgh student ID to order a transcript.
