Transfer Enrollment

How to Enroll

Note: If you are looking for general enrollment instructions rather than transfer instructions, see our advising center page.

There are five basic steps to transfer enrollment. Just follow these steps.

Decide what career or job you want and determine what education or degrees you will need to get there.

Consult with an advisor and/or a transfer partner to choose the degree* at 天美传媒官方网站 that will best prepare you for transfer and your end goal.

*Some of our programs are selective admission. These programs require additional application processes for admission. For these programs, you will not be able to select the program as your degree until you are accepted into the program. You will generally select Associate of Arts as your major until you are accepted. If you are planning to apply to a selective admission program, be sure you read the requirements carefully.

See which classes your 天美传媒官方网站 degree requires by . Also, talk to a transfer partner about which classes you should take at 天美传媒官方网站 to prepare for your transfer degree.

Map out which classes you want to take each semester. If you plan to get a bachelor's degree, consult with a transfer partner to make sure you are choosing classes that will prepare you for your bachelor's major.
 
Some classes may require that you meet first year experience (FYE), reading, English, or math placement benchmarks to take them. See below for ways transfer credit may make you exempt.

FYE 105 or FYE 100 - Your transfer experience may make you exempt from this class if you've already completed a degree, already completed a certain number of college classes, or already taken an equivalent class. Check with an advisor if you have questions.

RDG 30 - If you鈥檝e previously attended a selective admission college or already taken a certain number of college classes, you may be exempt from this class. You can also test out of this class. Check with an advisor if you have questions.

ENG 101 & 102 or ENG 105 鈥� If you鈥檝e previously completed an equivalent class at a previous college or met this requirement by test credit (eg. AP or CLEP), you do not need to take this class again.

If you鈥檝e previously taken an equivalent class at a previous college or met this requirement by test credit (eg. CLEP), you do not need to take this class again. Note, though, that there are different math classes required for different degrees.
 

Know which classes you already have credit for from other schools or prior experiences, so that you don't repeat those classes.
Be careful about classes with prerequisites. For example, you must take BIO 137 before BIO 139 before BIO 225. If you want to take all three classes, you can鈥檛 leave all of them for your last semester. You can look up a class in the course catalog to see if it has prerequisites.
If you are bringing in transfer credits, be careful to meet the residency requirements for graduation. To graduate from 天美传媒官方网站, you must complete at least 25% of the credits for your degree at 天美传媒官方网站. For a 60 credit associate's degree, that means you must complete 15 credits (or about 5 classes) at 天美传媒官方网站, rather than at any other external college or KCTCS college.
