A student of American International University, Inc. wishing to continue a program at another university should verify first that the credits obtained at AIU may be transferable to that university. There are institutions reluctant to accept credits obtained through distance learning adult degree programs, from non-formal education or from non-CHEA accredited institutions. In some cases, partial credit transfer may be accepted. Accreditation (including CHEA) does not provide automatic acceptance and validation of the credits earned at other institutions, nor does it guarantee the acceptance of graduates by employers. Acceptance of students or graduates is always the prerogative of the receiving institution or employer. For these reasons, students should take additional measures to determine, prior to enrollment, whether or not their educational goals will be met through studying at a particular institution.
