Transfer credits

The main reason for clinical hours not transferring has to do with curriculum development. While the state BON sets what must be covered, the school is free to arrange that information as it chooses. Chances are, no two schools are going t cover the same information in the same classes. I had a standalone 4 credit pharmacy course that was a co-requisite with my chronic health issues course. The school across town didn't separate pharmacology into its own course but rather taught pharmacology alongside associated clinical issues. Had I attended the school across town for part of nursing school and then transferred to the school I graduated from, I would have missed all of that pharmacology and likely not passed. That is why it is rare (if not downright impossible) to find a school that will accept credits from another program. The only scenario where I find it likely would be if a student is transferring campuses of a larger university system.
