Transfer applicants applying from a college on a trimester or quarter system should apply following our standard process. This will not negatively impact your application in the review process or your courses' eligibility for transfer credit. Transfer credit is determined on an individualized basis, but one year of fulltime study in a trimester or quarter system generally equates to a year of coursework at Penn. For more information on our transfer credit process, please refer to this article.
