General Transfer Information

The Associate in Arts, Associate in Fine Arts, and Associate in Science degree programs are designed for persons who are planning to transfer to four-year colleges or universities. These programs provide opportunities to complete the first two years of general college courses with some degree of specialization. The college/university transfer programs, including core requirements, are outlined below.

Program electives may be selected from a variety of courses. Selection should be based upon the requirements of the four-year institution to which the student plans to transfer.

Courses from the college/university transfer programs at CCC&TI normally transfer to four-year institutions participating in the community college articulation agreement. Requirements may be obtained through advisors, counselors in Student Services or at http://www.nccommunitycolleges.edu/academic-programs/college-transferarticulation-agreements. However, since many institutions and academic departments have specific course requirements, it is in every student’s best interest to consult with the desired senior institution to which transfer is being considered.

Note: The Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA) with the University of North Carolina system requires that a student have earned a grade of C or better in each course and have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 when all grades are counted in the computation. Thus, in order to gain the advantages of the CAA, a student must attain a grade point average of at least 2.0.
