CGS Required Course Evaluation

Students who need to take an external course to make up for a CGS required course must make an appointment with their CGS Academic Advisor. All external courses that are taken to make up CGS requirements must be approved by the CGS Associate Dean for Student Academic Life.

Students must earn a final grade of ‘C’ or higher for BU to accept units for approved external courses. 

Once the course has been completed with a grade of “C” or higher, contact the external institution to request that an official external transcript be sent directly to BU:

  • Electronic (Preferred Method): Send to CEtscrpt@bu.edu
  • Paper Mail: Credit Evaluation Department, 881 Commonwealth Avenue 2nd Floor, Boston, MA 02215

Once submitted, please email your CGS academic advisor to notify them that a transcript is being sent to Boston University.
