If both schools involved are regionally accredited (both in your example are) then the credit will generally transfer provided that it fits in the degree program of the new school.

Where we often run into transfer trouble is 1) course level and 2) applicability.

If you were to take vocational/occupational courses (ie: auto mechanics) at one college, those credits likely won’t transfer to an academic degree at a 4-year college. The same is true of remedial courses such as remedial composition or remedial math.

The courses also have to fit into your new degree program. My credits from an AS in Nursing didn’t transfer into my degree program for a BA in Music — there are no nursing credits in a music degree.

Usually, if your credit meets the regionally accredited, academic level, and applicability requirements – it will transfer.

Remember though, accepting credit in transfer is not a right. Every college is allowed to accept or decline whatever they want to. Some colleges are very generous (Excelsior College) while others are very restrictive (Princeton). The most generous will accept everything that meets their requirements, the most restrictive accept nothing at all. Most limit transfer credit to 90/120 (3/4) of the degree while some limit to 60/120 and some will transfer 120/120.

Wrapping the associates will give you a complete credential and maybe a boost for your ego (a good thing) but won’t really make a difference either way at most colleges.

First think about what school you want to graduate from. Then check with that school to determine if they will accept your credits from your current school. Sometimes schools have Transfer Credit database searches on their websites. You can do a preliminary search on whether or not your credits from Davenport will be accepted at the University of Texas (UT).

As for you finishing up your Associates degree from Davenport, that would depend on whether or not your credits from Davenport will be accepted at UT. If they will not accept your credits, it might not be a wise decision to continue since eventually you want a bachelor’s degree from UT. You’ll be spending your time and money on courses that won’t pertain to your bachelor’s degree.

Best wishes on your college career!

that’s an incredible concept to take college instructions in intense college. the only ingredient is which you are going to be able to desire to be certain that the credit you acquire on the community college will pass to the college you determine to pass to once you graduate intense college. To determine that out, all you are going to be able to desire to do is call the college and tell them the instructions you took, and that they’re going to aid you understand despite if the credit will pass. in many circumstances the worry-loose instructions do pass. you isn’t seen a junior in college in case you initiate your junior 365 days of highschool. colleges determine what “365 days” you’re reckoning on what share credit you have. in case you have 30+ hours, you’re seen a sophomore. in case you have 60+ hours, you’re seen a junior, and in case you have ninety+ hours, you’re seen a senior.
