Credit Transfer

A full course load at IES Milan is 15 IES credits.  Yale requires students to take an Italian Language class while abroad.

Most IES Milan courses are eligible for general Yale graduation credit. However, we cannot transfer credit for courses offered by an academic department that does not exist at the undergraduate level at Yale.

Courses in the following departments are not eligible for credit transfer:

  • Business
  • Communications
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Internships or Community-Based Learning

Special Note: Through the IES Milan: Italy Today program, you can apply to enroll in up to two economics courses at the Università Commerciale Luigi Bocconi.
