Receive UVU credits for coursework you previously completed by contacting the Transfer Credit Department. Both domestic and international transcripts are accepted.

If you are transferring credits from an international school, your transcript must be evaluated by an approved foreign credential evaluating company. Learn more on the Transfer Credit website or contact a Latino Initiative coordinator for assistance.

With the closure of UVU’s English Language Learning program, we encourage English learners to attend Community Education ESL classes. While classes are available at skill levels ranging from beginners to high intermediate speakers, these classes may not be suitable for students looking for more intensive English courses. Our Community Education courses may not cover the full spectrum of English language components required for college-level success.

Community Education ESL Classes

For UVU students looking to develop proficiency in college-level writing, UVU’s Literacies and Composition department offers ENGH 0890 and ENGH 1005 for both native and non-native English speakers. Non-native English students are required to take a placement exam. However, this assessment does not evaluate listening, speaking, reading, and grammar skills that may be required for success.
