Reverse Transfer

What is 鈥渞everse transfer鈥�?

The 鈥渞everse transfer agreement鈥� creates a process whereby students who transfer from a community college to a university can be awarded a community college associate鈥檚 degree with the help of credits earned at the university.

Community colleges offer a number of associate鈥檚 degree programs that encompass the basic courses for a bachelor鈥檚 degree at a four-year college or university. Some community college students are well on their way to earning an associate鈥檚 degree when they transfer to a university. The reverse transfer agreement provides a way for transfer students to receive an associate鈥檚 degree when the necessary requirements are met so as to more fully represent their academic success.

鈥淚t鈥檚 important that all students who enter the university system receive the degrees they鈥檝e earned, whether it鈥檚 at the university or the community college,鈥� said 吃瓜网 Provost Morrie Walworth. 鈥淲e鈥檙e happy to be able to work with our community college partners to ensure that credits earned at 吃瓜网 can be used (transferred back) to provide students with their well-deserved associate鈥檚 degrees and to have those degrees awarded by the community college.鈥�
