Transfer Degrees
Transferring to Another Institution
Transfer without a degree is an option for Southwestern students. A student may select a major and transfer school, then take only the specific courses required for that major and/or college. Students in certain majors may need to transfer after one year to take advantage of critical major courses offered in the sophomore year at the transfer institution. When a student opts for direct transfer, Southwestern courses are evaluated and accepted on a course-by-course basis by the transfer institution.
Direct transfer students must meet the transfer schools’ "freshman" or "transfer admission" requirements. Catalogs from transfer institutions contain information about credit hour and Grade Point Average (GPA) requirements, as well as transfer application procedures.
Transfer Problems?
If a student has a problem transferring classes to a college or university, the student should first try to resolve the problem through contact with the transfer institution. Southwestern advisors may be of assistance in such cases.
Articulated Degrees Offered:
The following degrees are designed with a transfer agreement between Southwestern Oregon Community College and the receiving institution. Students planning to transfer should contact an advisor at their transfer college early on and work with their advisor at SWOCC.
