Transfer FAQs

Which schools accept transfer credit from TTC?
Most colleges and universities accept transfer credit from TTC. Contact the four-year college for information on specific transfer policies. TTC maintains general transfer agreements with many South Carolina colleges and universities, as well as some specialty transfer, or 2+2 agreements.

What are the advantages of taking transfer courses at TTC?
TTC's transfer program has numerous benefits. First, earning transfer credit at TTC enables many students to be admitted to four-year colleges and universities who might not be admitted as freshmen. Second, TTC tuition is one-half to one-third the tuition at most four-year colleges, so students who complete the first two years of a baccalaureate degree can save thousands of dollars.  Third, with small classes, helpful instructors, and high standards, TTC transfer courses effectively prepare students for higher levels of coursework.

What should I major in at TTC?
Most of TTC's transfer students major in Associate in Arts or Associate in Science because those majors are designed to transfer.  Most other majors, while not designed to transfer, also include some transferable courses. Some students who wish to take only a few transfer courses attend TTC as non-degree-seeking students.

How should I select courses?
Careful course selection is important because requirements vary from college to college and from major to major within a college. Work closely with an advisor, get information from the four-year college, and use TTC's transfer tips.

How do I get my credits to transfer?
When you are ready to transfer, you need to request that official copies of your TTC transcript be sent to the admissions/records office of your new college. Transfer request forms are available in TTC's Admissions and Records office.
