Transfer Evaluation at Georgia Military College, Augusta?

Hi peeps, I'm thinking about transferring to Georgia Military College, Augusta and am a bit confused about the 'transfer evaluation'. Has anyone been through this process who can provide some insight? It would be a big help!

Sure, I'd be happy to help clarify the transfer evaluation process for you as you consider transferring to Georgia Military College, Augusta.

The transfer evaluation process generally refers to the review and acknowledgment of the credits you've earned at your previous institution(s). Keep in mind that this process can vary from college to college.

At Georgia Military College, when you apply as a transfer student, the institution will likely want to see your transcript(s) from your previous college(s). Then, the admissions or registrar's office will go through a process of evaluating what courses you've taken, what grades you achieved, and possibly the syllabus for each to determine if and how those credits transfer to Georgia Military College.

Each of your completed courses will be reviewed individually, in comparison to the equivalent courses at Georgia Military College. If they determine that one of your classes is similar in content and rigor to a particular class they offer, they may grant you direct credit for that course. If not, you might still receive elective credits.

In some cases, some credits might not transfer and you will have to retake the course at your new institution. Particularly, vocational or remedial classes you've taken at your previous institution may not transfer over.

It's really important to remember this process doesn't happen instantly. It can take a few weeks to get a complete evaluation, so I recommend you to get started with it as soon as possible.

Finally, don't hesitate to reach out to the institution you're interested in transferring to. Ask a lot of questions to make sure you have a clear understanding of how they'll likely view your previous coursework.

One specific tip—try reaching out to the registrar or admission officer at Georgia Military College, Augusta; they should be able to give you the most accurate and up-to-date information.
