MADISON, S.D. (AP) - The South Dakota Board of Regents is making it easier to transfer credits from the state's technical schools to a popular health sciences degree at The University of South Dakota.
Students completing the associate of applied science degree in medical office professional at Mitchell Technical Institute and a similar degree in allied health at Southeast Technical Institute can now apply their credits toward the USD degree.

The change brings the number of credit-transfer agreements in the state to 259
