Transferring from Maryland Public Community Colleges

Students working togetherIf you’re a graduate of a Maryland public community college and in good academic standing with at least 56 transferable credits, you will receive admission priority.

 

Associate in Arts (A.A.) degree holders from a Maryland Community College are guaranteed admission (as space permits) if they meet the following criteria:

  • minimum 2.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale

  • no record of attending an institution of higher education after earning an A.A. from a Maryland community college

"Guaranteed admission" applies to admission to the university only and does not guarantee admission to competitive majors.  If you plan to pursue a competitive major, you must contact that department for specific screening procedures and GPA requirements for entrance into the major.

Students who have earned less than 56 transferable credits or are transferring from an institution other than a Maryland community college will be admitted based upon their combined cumulative GPA, amount of transferable credits and space availability.

Credits from two-year institutions may not be used to fulfill the upper-level requirement of 32 units.  Lower-level courses from four-year institutions that have upper-level TU equivalents can transfer as lower-level credit.  However, this equivalent coursework can count towards requirements for your major.  Faculty from your major will determine on a case-by-case basis if coursework counts toward major requirements.
