Transfer to Other Institutions

SCC students who expect to transfer to any other institution of higher learning should realize that the credits accepted for transfer toward a degree are determined solely by the institution to which the student transfers.

A student who plans to transfer to a four-year college or university should follow these five steps:

1. Obtain a current catalog of the institution to which you wish to transfer and study the entrance requirements and suggestions for freshman and sophomore programs in the major field of interest.
2. Consult with a counselor or advisor about fulfilling these requirements.
3. Consult, either by letter or by personal interview, with an Admissions Officer of the institution for further information about curriculum and transfer regulations.
4. Obtain an Articulation Agreement with institution to be certain all requirements will be met and all regulations observed to the satisfaction of the four-year college or university.
5. Request official transcript from SCC to transfer institution.
