if a student is responsible and does his or her homework with regards to credit transfers, it really is not as big a deal as folks make it out to be.



Man I'm glad I lucked out on this situation. The college I'm *hopefully* transferring to (mailed the admissions application today.wish me luck!*crosses fingers*:$) has a partnership with my current hell hole of a community college. When I expressed an interest in their institution they sent me a packet of every class my current college offers and its transfer counterpart at their institution. Luckily everything I've taken thus far looks like its going to transfer.I was taking an upper level class this semester but was told it wouldnt transfer b/c all upper level work is required to be completed at the higher education institute to receive full credit.So I dropped the class to lighten my load.*shrug* no point taking a class I dont get credit for/would have to repeat at the new college.:S

These are called "articulation agreements". I believe all community colleges have them with local universities.

Yes, I know that much.I was simply expressing my relief that I have a favorable chance of having most if not all my classes transfer. I've had friends transfer to colleges much closer than my prospective college only to learn that more than half of their credits did not transfer even though the community college assured them that they would.My current college is nortorious for screwing students out of credits and money (yet another reason I'm ready to get the hell out fo here).:|
