Credit Transfer

Forum-Nexus courses are sponsored by two European universities:

  • Franklin University Switzerland in Lugano
  • Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan

In summer 2024, course credits and transcripts will be issued by Franklin University Switzerland. FUS is fully accredited in Switzerland and also in the U.S.

Each Forum-Nexus course is designed to comply with curricular guidelines of U.S. and international universities.

All courses taken through Forum-Nexus are worth 3 U.S. semester credit hours (6 ECTS credits). In most cases they will transfer to your home institution and count towards your degree requirements.

Each student must enroll in at least one regular 3-credit course. They may enroll in one or two additional courses for a total of 6 or 9 credits. Each 3-credit course involves 45 contact hours. All students also participate in the International IQ Seminar, designed to improve your cultural, geographic, and global knowledge.

Guide for Students: Credit Transfer Process

As a Forum-Nexus student, it is your responsibility to contact the study abroad office at your university to ensure that courses taken with Forum-Nexus will transfer. Forum-Nexus staff are available to assist with the approval process as well.

Steps to credit approval for Forum-Nexus courses:

  1. Determine which FN courses you are interested in taking, and download and print the course syllabi for each. Your FN Admissions Counselor will meet with you to discuss courses and narrow down the options.
  2. Print a copy of the "About Forum-Nexus" section of our website.
  3. Contact your study abroad advisor to set up a meeting to discuss the program and credit transfer process. Every university is different, and your school may have specific guidelines and/or forms.
  4. Bring the printed syllabi and additional information about Forum-Nexus to the meeting with your study abroad office.
  5. Follow the necessary steps as directed by your study abroad advisor. You may be advised to meet with your academic and financial aid advisors as well.
