The college may accept up to one year of transfer credits into the MAOM program.

Transfer credit is not accepted for courses exclusive to the DACM program or the CCHM program. 

All transferred coursework must be completed at a college/university accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education, or equivalent international entity, and be equivalent to Daoist Traditions’ degree requirements. AOM college coursework is accepted from Accreditation Commission for Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine (ACAHM) accredited or pre-accredited acupuncture/Chinese medicine programs.

We believe that transfer students enrich our classrooms. If you have any questions about the possibility of transferring credits into our program, please contact our Admissions Director, Juliet Daniel, at admissions@daoisttraditions.edu.

Previous coursework is assessed on a case by case basis during the admissions process. Our Admissions Team tries to award as many transfer credits as possible. However, we are careful to only accept credits for courses that clearly have prepared the student for our program. Due to the differences between programs, transfer students should expect that some credits will not be accepted, that they will need to complete courses unique to DT’s curriculum, and it may require additional time to complete our program. Refer to the Academic Catalog for details.

All transferred coursework must be completed at a college/university accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education, or equivalent international entity, and be equivalent to Daoist Traditions’ requirements for graduation.

Transfer credit cannot be awarded twice for the same class; that is, it cannot be used to meet the minimum entrance requirement and also count as hours within the program. Daoist Traditions does not evaluate prior learning experience. If a course is not listed on a transcript, regardless of prior experience, no credit can be awarded.
