Transfer Credit

How credit transfer from Duke is determined by each student's home institution. To constitute a full course load, undergraduate visiting international students at Duke University (Durham, North Carolina, U.S.A.) are required to enroll in four (4) full content courses per semester, valued at one course credit each on the Duke University scale.

According to the Duke University Registrar, one course credit at Duke has a suggested value of 4 semester credit hours on the more commonly used U.S. semester credit hour scale, making the suggested value of the undergraduate visiting international student’s required semester course load 16 semester credit hours.

Per our research and estimations, 4 course credits at Duke should be valued at 30 ECTS credits, with each course having a suggested value of 7.5 ECTS credits.
