The Admissions Department will arrange for evaluation, on request, of official transcripts for work completed elsewhere and will grant transfer credit towards specific programs.
Certain courses may be challenged for credit. The purpose of this challenge is to determine whether knowledge and experience gained outside the college is equivalent to that required for successful completion of a course.
Normally, the maximum transfer credit and challenge credit will be 50% of the credit value of the program.
Some courses in College certificate programs may require a prerequisite which is not a part of the certificate program itself.
College Certificates will be granted for the completion of the following programs of study shown below.
