Transferring From Montgomery College?

I'm currently at Montgomery College and looking to transfer. Does anyone know about transfer agreements they might have with other universities? I'm specifically interested in any in-state options where my credits would easily transfer.

Montgomery College has a number of established agreements, known as Articulation Agreements, with universities in Maryland and surrounding areas. These agreements are designed to ensure a seamless transition between your course of study at Montgomery College and the corresponding program at the four-year institution. Simply put, they help to ensure that your credits will transfer smoothly.

One of the key in-state partners is the University of Maryland, College Park, which offers a program called MTAP (Maryland Transfer Advantage Program). This program guarantees admission into most majors at UMD, provided certain GPA and course requirements are met. Other in-state institutions with similar agreements include Salisbury University, Towson University, and University of Maryland Baltimore County, among others.

To make full use of these agreements, it's recommended that you reach out to your academic advisor early in your studies at Montgomery College and have a discussion about your long-term goals, interests, and the specific university you're interested in. Your advisor can help guide you through the course selection process to ensure you're taking the requisite classes that will provide a smooth transition into your desired four-year university program.

Remember also to keep up a strong academic performance, as admission to many universities and specific programs typically requires a certain GPA, even with an articulation agreement in place. Good luck with your transfer process!
