6:03:58 PM [Mariya T] Thank you for your interest in Capella University. My name is Mariya, how can I help you?

6:05:56 PM [Mariya T] Are you still available to chat?  If you would like to continue chatting, please respond in the next two minutes.

6:06:08 PM [Visitor] Yes

6:06:17 PM [Mariya T] Hi! How can I help you today?

6:09:28 PM [Visitor] I am a PhD student who has completed all course requirements in my current program PhD - Philosophy Public Policy Administration. My GPA has always been 4.0 and I'm currently looking for a PhD program to transfer into. Although I am at my dissertation point, my Chair and committee left on medical numerous times. I would like to transfer, even if it means retaking or taking additional course requirements. What are my options with Capella?

6:12:28 PM [Mariya T] We can definitely assist you with that. We do offer a Doctor of Public Administration (DPA) program at Capella, but there is a doctoral capstone instead of a dissertation component for that program. Would you be interested in that?

6:13:38 PM [Visitor] Yes

6:14:34 PM [Visitor] What are the max credits allowed to transfer in?

6:15:00 PM [Mariya T] The program requires 74 quarter credits to complete, up to 18 of which may be fulfilled via transfer.

6:16:16 PM [Visitor] Is that the same for every PhD program at Capella?

6:17:25 PM [Mariya T] No, the maximum transfer credits do vary by program. Generally, you cannot transfer more than ¼ of the total required credits, unfortunately.

6:19:36 PM [Visitor] Which program allows the max transfer credits? Although I have interest in other PhD programs at Capella, I thought that it would be more beneficial to stick with the same program. However, if only 18 are allowed, I should consider more mptions with Capella?

6:20:32 PM [Visitor] Are you still there?

6:20:52 PM [Mariya T] Yes, I'm just looking into different doctoral programs' maximum transfer credits.

6:20:58 PM [Visitor] Ok thanks

6:22:04 PM [Mariya T] Our Doctor of Human Services (DHS) program requires 72 credits to complete, and up to 20 can be fulfilled via transfer.

6:22:32 PM [Mariya T] Most doctoral programs will allow 12 - 20 credits via transfer, but not much more than that.

6:23:00 PM [Visitor] Are there any other program that allow more than 18?

6:23:48 PM [Mariya T] Our PhD in Psychology programs allow up to 25, but those programs require more total credits to complete (104 in total).

6:23:51 PM [Visitor] Psychology?

6:24:13 PM [Visitor] I was just texting that

6:24:14 PM [Mariya T] Again, you generally cannot fulfill more than ¼ of the total credits required to complete the program through transfer.

6:24:27 PM [Visitor] Ok

6:26:18 PM [Visitor] Are there only 3 program options that allow 18 or more transfer credits? Moreover, who can I speak with to determine which credits/courses are options for being approved upon acceptance?

6:26:47 PM [Visitor] ... for each of the programs?

6:27:22 PM [Mariya T] You would need to speak with an enrollment counselor who specializes in that particular program, they can evaluate your transcripts to see which credits may transfer.

6:27:37 PM [Mariya T] Are you interested in the DHS program at Capella?

6:28:46 PM [Visitor] Are there only 3 PhD program s that allow 18 or more transfer credits?

6:30:16 PM [Mariya T] As I mentioned above, our doctoral programs generally do not allow you to fulfill more than 12 - 20 credits via transfer. You would need to complete the majority of your program at Capella in order to receive a degree.

6:31:19 PM [Visitor] Yes, I understand that. I'm asking are there any additional PhD programs that allow 18 -20 transfer credits?

6:31:26 PM [Mariya T] No, there are not.

6:31:36 PM [Visitor] Ok. I would like to have my transcript evulated by Public Policy, Psychology and DHS is my last option.

6:32:22 PM [Mariya T] I can definitely have an enrollment counselor reach out to you tomorrow and evaluate your transcript for transfer credits. I would need your full name, email, and phone number to set that up.

6:33:17 PM [Visitor] Ok. Is it the same enrollment counselor for all 3 program options?

6:33:59 PM [Visitor] Bev Boyd, xxx-xxx-xxxx, bfbs.consulting@gmail.com

6:34:09 PM [Mariya T] Thank you, Bev. Our enrollment counselors are available between 10 am - 8 pm Central Time. What time frame works best for you tomorrow?

6:34:27 PM [Visitor] Pacific

6:34:59 PM [Visitor] 10am tomorrow morning Pacific time?

6:35:53 PM [Visitor] Is it the same enrollment counselor for all 3 program options?

6:36:03 PM [Mariya T] Okay, great. I will go ahead and set that up for you, and an enrollment counselor will reach out to you tomorrow to discuss our program options and evaluate your transcripts. I will also send you a quick follow-up email with some information about our programs and Capella University in general.

6:36:41 PM [Mariya T] I will send your information to specialists for each of the three programs that we discussed today.

6:37:46 PM [Mariya T] What other questions can I assist you with today?

6:38:30 PM [Visitor] Ok thank you. Can you also set up an appointment for my daughter? She is an undergrad sophomore looking to transfer from University of Hawaii to an online mainlamd program

6:39:08 PM [Mariya T] Which bachelor's program is she interested in?

6:40:02 PM [Visitor] She's currently compute science but prefers MIS

6:40:11 PM [Visitor] Computer typo

6:41:02 PM [Mariya T] Can you clarify what you mean by MIS?

6:41:19 PM [Visitor] Management Information Systems

6:41:44 PM [Visitor] Or just Computer Science

6:42:16 PM [Mariya T] We do not offer a computer science program, but we do offer a Bachelor's in IT program with multiple specializations. Would she be interested in that?

6:42:44 PM [Visitor] Yes
