I’m on the verge of graduating but I’m missing a statistics class from my sophomore year. It turns out that my credit for “statistical analysis” isn’t transferring to my four-year college to meet their requirement. I’ve already completed all the higher-level statistics courses, but I can’t graduate until this one is resolved. I’ve registered to test out of the course and feel confident about passing, but is it true that I might have to pay tuition to retake a class I’ve already completed at another college?

It sounds frustrating to be in this situation right before graduation! Many colleges have specific policies regarding transfer credits and requirements, so it can sometimes be tricky when courses don’t transfer as expected. Since you’ve completed additional statistics courses, you might want to speak with your academic advisor or the registrar’s office to see if they can offer any solutions.
In some cases, colleges may allow you to substitute a higher-level course or provide options for independent study or a challenge exam. If you’re confident about testing out, that could save you time and potentially money. However, if you do need to retake the course for credit, it’s worth checking if they have any options for waiving the tuition fee, especially since you’ve already completed coursework beyond the requirement. Best of luck with this—you’ve made it this far, and I hope you can sort it out soon!
