Since each college has its own requirements, the most important thing you can do to make the transfer process run smoothly is plan ahead.

Get help from these resources:

• Your high school counselor
• College websites
• The admission, advisors and counseling offices of  St. Louis Community College
  • Transfer Planning on STLCC's website
• Career Development Department at St. Louis Community College
• Your professors
• Library resources
• Transfer advisers at the admission offices of the four-year colleges you’re considering

Ask these questions:

• Does the two-year college have a special transfer relationship — often called an articulation agreement — with any four-year colleges?
• Will the credits I earn be accepted at the four-year colleges I’m considering?
• What grades do I need to earn in my classes to get credit at the four-year colleges?
• What’s the minimum GPA I need to maintain to get into the four-year colleges?
