Transfer Equivalency

If you have or plan to take courses outside the South Dakota Board of Regents system, a public database of previously transferred courses and their South Dakota Mines equivalent course is available for your review. If the course you are reviewing is not listed in this database or you would like to have a course that is listed re-evaluated, please feel free to contact registrar@sdsmt.edu to request an evaluation of the course’s equivalency. Please make sure to include: the school, the state the school is in, the course number and prefix, the course description, and, if possible, a syllabus in your email. The database can be found at the following link:

Transfer Equivalency Database

The six South Dakota Board of Regents schools (BHSU, DSU, NSU, SDSMT, SDSU, and USD) use a common course numbering system. Any courses taken from any of the six schools are automatically part of a student’s Mines record.
