University Transfer

Students in the classroomMCC offers the University Transfer Program for students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution. The University Transfer Program is parallel to the courses taken by freshmen and sophomores at universities and senior colleges. Students who plan to continue their studies at a university should secure a catalog from that school so that their schedules can be formatted to parallel the senior institution’s curriculum.

The University Transfer Associate in Arts degree consists of a series of core courses and a selection of transferable courses based on the student’s desired major. Generally, one-half of the hours required for a bachelor’s degree may be transferred from a community college to apply to a degree at a senior institution.

While there are no programs designed for transfer to senior institutions that require a minimum ACT score for admission, the following is a guide for placement in most general education courses at MCC, one of these must be met:

  • Attain a 17 composite score on the ACT. (Some courses require higher for placement purposes.); or
  • Score 70 or higher on the ACCUPLACER Reading Section; or
  • Earn a “C” or above in Intermediate English and Reading (ENG 0124); or
  • Complete 15 semester hours with a “C” average or above at an accredited college or university. Developmental courses do not satisfy this requirement.

While it is not required, MCC strongly encourages students to enroll in a physical education course as a degree plan elective. There is a direct correlation between the quality of one’s health and capacity to learn and function well in society. MCC’s physical education courses promote personal wellness, which transcends curricular considerations, and is rather a lifelong goal for every human being.
