How many transferable credits depends on the major you took at the community college, the major you intend to take at the four year institution, the grades you received, the course content etc. All four year institutions have the ability to transfer in more than the community college programs require for the associates degree in terms of credits. Still, read the below on some reasons credits might not transfer.
Most colleges and universities do accept transfer credit from other accredited institutions. I wouldn't try it with say, West Point!
TESC will accept most credits...
You can collect all college credit earned from your transcripts and transfer them to a college to complete your degree. Most colleges will accept up to 75% of credits earned.
No, you still have them. The new college may or may not accept all the credits you earned at the first, but if you go back to the first college, they're still there (though they, in turn, might refuse to accept transfer credits from the new college). If you think there's the slightest possibility you might transfer schools, you should plan ahead and contact both colleges to see what credits will transfer and what will not.
This is subjective. It all depends on the online school you attended, as quite a few online schools do not have credits that transfer. It also depends on the University, many Universities will accept credits, but sometimes they will not accept all the credits that you earned at your previous school. Most colleges and Universities will have there accreditation listed on their website, if you can find two schools that are accreditted through the same company your credits will most likely be transferable. I would caution you not to fill out any admissions forms for any colleges or Universities until you have figured out if your credits will transfer because if they wont, you will have to start all over with your degree.
Ashford University, Excelsior College, Thomas Edison State College, Charter Oak. All are regionally accreditted an accept more than ninety credits from your previos school
Almost all. Most have a limit to how many credits you can receive.
Most all community colleges have the preferred regional accreditation. Therefore, the coursework and degree you complete through the community college system are recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers. How many credits can be transferred always depends on the receiving institution, their transfer credit policy, the specific program of study, and grades received.
Only from Harvard summer school. You must petition for all other transfers.
Yes. Devry has the preferred regional accreditation by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Therefore, the coursework and degree you complete through this institution will be recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers.
Yes, credits can be awarded for military experience, especially when a service member attended specialized training/coursework. Still, most colleges can award a least six credits for basic training (such as physical education etc.)
From my experiences I can tell you that although most colleges have admission policies that detail the requirements for credit transfer, most colleges (usually of the fully or partially online private type) are able to use their discretion when evaluating transfer students coming from exclusively nationally accredited universities. Regional accreditation is the prefered type, and those national credits will always haunt you thru ought your education due to the fact that they will continue to be evaluated seperately from other credits, this is no reason to dispair. I would look in to a college that is known to accept a large amount of your national accredited school credits. Here is a partial list: Univ. of Phoenix, Western Governors Univ., Capella, Ashford, Walden, Baker online, Fischer college, Bellevue, Kaplan, Brandman, American Public University. All of these are online though. Upper Iowa University has a campus, as well as, online.
Each specific 4 year university has its own rules about what credits they accept for transfer. The credits that are the most likely to transfer are from general classes such as the lower level math, english, basic science and history classes that most degrees require all students to take. You are also more likely to get credits transferred within the same state and if there is an agreement between the community college and the university.
The University of Phoenix has the preferred regional accreditation by the North Central Association of Colleges and School. Therefore, the coursework and credits are recognized by all other colleges and universities. That being said, the amount of credits accepted, is always up to the receiving institution and their transfer credit policies. It also depends on whether the courses completed fit into the intended program of study at the new institution, whether the completed courses were successfully completed (usually a C grade or higher), and whether the courses are considered equivalent in content and credit hours. Overall, you should not have a problem, but always remember, whenever you transfer from one school to another (no matter what school you attended), there is always the chance that not all credits will transfer.
