How do you know that credits will transfer from a technical school to 2 year community college or university

If I take classes at a Technical School, will it transfer to a 2 year or 4 year college? How can I find out if there is school with transferable credit? I wouldn’t mind going to a technical college if I could take classes in a field that wasn’t a dead end. Any advice ?

First is regional accreditation. Make sure the technical is RA and not nationally accredited. This is essential! Make sure you understand this concept if you’re going to be transferring schools.

Then, the course has to be at the same level and applicable to the program you’re transferring to.

Example: truck driving is a vocational level course. While it might transfer to an AAS program at your community college, it won’t transfer to an AA or bachelor’s degree program.

Course like College Writing or Algebra or Biology, those will transfer to most.

Remember though, there is not right to transfer. The decision is up to the receiving college unless some articulation agreement is already in place.

Happy learning!

Talk to the 2 year community college or university.When you pick out the college or university you want to go to, talk to the admissions. They will help you out. Than when you get into the school. pick out the major you want to get into.

I am studying to be a 1st grade teacher. And I graduated from high school in 2004. I went back to school in 2006. I am in my 2nd year in community college. I had to pick my major last quarter (spring quarter) and I am getting my A.A.

I hope to get into my classroom in a 4 or 5 years from now.
