Credit and Affiliation

UMN System Programs are affiliated programs. Typically, UMTC students receive resident credit for short-term programs and transfer credit for semester/academic year programs (though there may be occasional exceptions based on the program). Your grades for resident credit programs count toward your University of Minnesota GPA, and each course appears on your transcript. More information can be found on the Academic Policies page. These programs utilize the Multi-Institutional process to allow for registration on more than one UMN campus.
