Response from CIS Abroad
We're so happy to hear you had such an amazing experience in Ecuador! We're sorry, however, that your credit transfer was not as smooth as you had hoped. Our participants' home colleges/universities typically allow transfer credit in a more expedited manner, so we're sorry to hear that your process had some hitches in it. Thanks for your feedback!
