Associate in Arts - College Transfer

 

Transfer agreements between Southwestern Community College and other colleges or universities allow graduates of certain SCC programs to transfer credits towards a Bachelor of Science degree to the participating university or college. The amount of transferable credit varies among programs and colleges. Please refer to the specific agreements for details on transferable credits.Through an agreement with the University of North Carolina system, SCC students can earn up to 65 hours worth of credit that will transfer to any public university in the state. There are two structured transfer options: completion of the Associate in Arts degree ensures students’ transfer with junior status into most major universities; completion of the 44-hour general education core ensures transfer with sophomore status at the university. Students should become familiar with the entrance and program requirements at the university they plan to transfer to in order to guide their course selections at SCC. Students who wish to transfer before completing the AA degree or the 44-hour core should consult closely with their advisors for course-by-course equivalencies.
