Transfer of Credits
DRCOM neither
implies nor guarantees that credits earned while enrolled will be accepted by
other institutions. Each campus has policies that govern the acceptance of
credit from other institutions. Transfer of credit is a privilege granted by the
institution to which a student may seek admission. Students seeking to transfer
credits earned at DRCOM to other postsecondary institutions should contact the
college or university to which they seek admission to inquire as to that
institution’s policies on credit transfer and acceptance.
Transfer Students - Admissions
Transfer students and non-transfer students are accepted and admitted on the same basis. Transfer credit is granted at the discretion of the Academic Dean. It is the responsibility of the student to request a transfer of credit at enrollment and to provide necessary documentation
in addition to official transcripts such as catalog course description, syllabi, and any other documents the Academic Dean may request.
No partial credit can be given. Oriental medicine coursework and clinical hours may be transferred from an ACAOM
accredited or candidate college. Western medicine coursework may be transferred
from a college that is accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department
of Education. The student may be required to take the final exam for the
transfer credit being requested. All transfer credits must be requested and granted by the end of the first
academic year of enrollment.
A minimum of one academic year of study at Dragon Rises College, on a full course load basis, is required for graduation and the granting of a degree; however, all Dragon Rises
College program requirements must be met, and most students will need more than one year.
The College cannot guarantee credit transfer to any other institution, as this is granted at the discretion of each institution.

Dragon Rises College of Oriental Medicine has established an Articulation
Agreement with Santa Fe College in Gainesville, FL. |
