<p>I am looking to apply to a few community colleges just as a backup. Does anyone know any good community colleges which are good in Credits and aid transfer to 4 year colleges? </p>
<p>Most people attend CCs within driving distance of their homes. Credits are typically designed to transfer to public universities in the same state.</p>
<p>And since virtually all CCs are open enrollment, there is no reason to apply to more than one.</p>
<p>So where do you live? Or is there a particular out-of-state university you’d like to transfer into from a CC in the same state?</p>
<p>Actually I am an international student. So community colleges cant transfer credits to private or out of state universities? </p>
<p>The upper-level school decides which credits they will accept. It’s also up to individual departments to decide if they will accept courses as part of your major requirements; you might be able to transfer credits, but be required to repeat courses that you have already taken.</p>
<p>One thing you should try to do is attend community college that has the same scheduling system (quarters or semesters) as the universities you’re interested in. If you’re not certain, stick with semesters, because most schools use semesters.</p>
<p>You will also increase transferability if you take standard courses at the community college. I mean courses like Calculus, Introduction to Chemistry, and so on. Unusual courses like “Feminist Interpretations of Horror Films” might not transfer at all, or they might transfer as electives, but not as core requirements.</p>
<p>If you have some upper-level schools in mind, look for community colleges with similar course requirements. For example, all public institutions in Utah require two semesters of freshman writing. A community college in another state might require only one semester of freshman writing. So when you transfer, you might have to take a second freshman writing course as a junior. Many schools in the state of Washington require one 5-hour writing course. If you transfer to a school in another state that requires two 3-hour writing courses, you might be able to transfer only 3 of those 5 hours, AND be required to take another writing course. You can avoid all that if you attend schools with similar requirements.</p>
<p>If you know the colleges and universities that you would have on your transfer list, check their websites for information about articulation agreements and guaranteed transfer agreements with community colleges. Some 4-year institutions are significantly more transfer friendly than others.</p>
<p>Thank You WasatchWriter and happymomof1. Really Appreciate it :)</p>
