Transfer students who have passed the Qualifying Examination for Ateneo College (QEAC) may ask for credit validation of subjects/courses taken from the previous school attended. A small number of transfer students are accepted into the University. If accepted, there is no guarantee as to the number of courses that will be validated or credited from the previous school. Generally, only a few of the courses taken in the previous school are transferred (credited), subject to the evaluation of the Department Chairpersons. Because of the structure of the Ateneo curriculum, transfer students become irregular students who find good subjects or schedules difficult to arrange. Transfer students who finish two years in another college generally need at least three more years at the Ateneo to finish their degree.

Courses taken from another school should be credited on the first semester/or summer (i.e. first enrollment) of studies at the University. No other course taken from another school may be credited after the first semester of studies in the University. The University reserves the right to evaluate courses taken from the previous school subject to the University standards and admission policies on credit transfer. Transfer students cannot take more than the regular load for the semester of the given program.
