Transfer to Other Colleges

May of 2002, TMCC implemented a General Education core curriculum that qualifies transfer within the North Dakota University System, and North Dakota colleges. Since the requirements of colleges and universities out of state may vary, a student must familiarize themselves with the program requirements of the TMCC or the four-year college where he/she will transfer. A student who is planning to transfer should adhere to the following:

  1. The lower-division requirements at most four-year colleges and universities consist, in general of two parts:
    1. The general education requirements which are required of all candidates for a degree regardless of the proposed major (See the NDUS gold and silver pages, which is available from your advisor or registrar); and
    2. The major department requirements which are part of the student’s projected field of specialization.
  2. The four-year College or university, in the final analysis, determines the transferability of any course.
  3. General Education courses, while not equivalent in all aspects, are similar in content. Therefore, all NDUS colleges and other out of state colleges accept courses to satisfy general education requirements. If a student is in doubt about the transfer of any course, they should ask for an evaluation by the Registrar at the institution to which they plan to transfer.
