If you're currently enrolled at ÃÛѨÊÓƵ and thinking about taking a class to transfer back in, maybe online or at a local college over the summer:

1. Review or to check any established equivalencies (Note: quarter credits will be converted to 2/3 of a semester credit).
2. Complete the form before you take the course to be sure it will transfer back to ÃÛѨÊÓƵ the way you want it to. 
3. After you finish the course, order an official transcript to be sent from that school directly to ÃÛѨÊÓƵ.
4. Once the course is transferred into ÃÛѨÊÓƵ, you will be able to see it in Self-Service.

Up to 72-semester credits (108 quarter credits) of coursework completed at institutionally accredited two-year colleges can be transferred. These courses must be college-level, academic in nature and comparable to courses in the ÃÛѨÊÓƵ course catalog. Professional and technical courses will not transfer, but up to 8 credits may be awarded for recognition of courses completed.

If you earn an associate degree designed for transfer, such as the AAOT (Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer), AA-DTA or AS-DTA (Washington Direct Transfer Agreement), IGETC (California Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum), or similar degree from another state you will:

• have met all lower-division ÃÛѨÊÓƵ Curriculum requirements
• be required to complete one upper-division course from any of the six Modes of Inquiry
• be required to take the Major Writing Intensive course in your major
• be required to meet all requirements for a bachelor's degree

If you earn another associate degree, such as A.A., A.S., A.G.S., etc, courses will be considered individually for application toward specific degree requirements. 

Current ÃÛѨÊÓƵ students taking nursing prerequisite courses on the McMinnville campus should consult the as well as the Transfer Course Guides.

Prospective students who plan to apply directly to the School of Nursing should consult with the Admission Office.

If you're looking to transfer credit into ÃÛѨÊÓƵ, we encourage you to assess how your coursework completed at other institutions may transfer. Using Transferology, you can easily find the courses you have completed at another institution and submit them for a quick assessment. All courses approved for transfer must meet all ÃÛѨÊÓƵ .

Although all transfer policies must be met, we want to call specific attention to these three overarching policies.

• Completed at an institutionally accredited college or university.
• Awarded a grade of C- (1.700) or higher (Demonstration of a C or better is required for transfer of Pass/Fail courses)
• Courses taken on the quarter calendar system will transfer as 2/3 of the transcripted credits.
