I'm attending Harper College and considering transferring. I want to know what other schools have pathways or agreements with Harper for a smooth transfer process.
Many universities across the country accept transfers from community colleges like Harper; however, the most seamless transitions are usually ensured through formal transfer agreements and pathways. Harper College has several "University Transfer Programs" established with four-year institutions to make the process smoother.
Here are a few examples:
1. DePaul University: DePaul and Harper College have a partnership to facilitate transfers. The program is called DePaul Admission Partnership Program (DAPP). It provides a clear pathway and advising support to help ensure a successful transfer.
2. Northern Illinois University (NIU): NIU and Harper have a Guaranteed Admissions (GAP) agreement that ensures students who follow recommended plans will have their Harper courses count toward their NIU degree.
3. University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC): Harper has a transfer agreement with UIC as part of UIC's Transfer Admission Guarantee (TAG) program.
4. Eastern Illinois University (EIU): EIU and Harper College have a Co-Admission agreement, meaning that EIU will help guide students through Harper College and will then facilitate their transfer to EIU.
In addition, Harper College also has transfer agreements in specific subject areas with other institutions like Roosevelt University, Columbia College Chicago, and Southern Illinois University to name a few.
To find the best fit for your academic goals, definitely reach out to your academic adviser at Harper College. They can provide you with more detailed and personalized guidance on the transfer process.
