Transfer Information

Students transferring from other accredited colleges who are in good standing and have met all curricular requirements are eligible for admission to Oklahoma City Community College. Students who do not meet curricular requirements must make up deficiencies within the first 12 credit hours of college level work. Information on remediating deficiencies is available in the Office of Academic Advising. Students who have been placed on academic probation or suspension by their previous college or who do not meet Oklahoma City Community College retention standards may be admitted on probation. Official transcripts from all colleges attended must be submitted during the application process.

All coursework previously completed at a regionally accredited institution of higher education will be accepted as transfer credit, although not all credit will necessarily apply toward degree requirements. Courses with grades of "D" may not meet degree or course prerequisite requirements. Credit for courses from institutions not using a traditional semester academic calendar will be converted to semester hour credits. Grade points earned at institutions using any method other than the traditional 4.0 system will be converted to the 4.0 system.

An analysis of transfer credit will be performed for students who are currently enrolled and who have officially declared a major. Students must have official copies of transcripts from all colleges attended on file in the Office of Records and Registration Services. Once these documents have been submitted, they become a permanent part of the student's official record at Oklahoma City Community College. They will not be returned, reissued, or copied for distribution. Transcripts from other institutions, if needed, must be obtained directly from the institution where they were originally issued.

Credit earned from an unaccredited institution generally will qualify the student to take Advanced Standing examinations in specific subject areas.

It is the student's responsibility to furnish additional information to the College, if needed, to evaluate transfer credit, i.e., course descriptions, catalogs or syllabi.
