Transfer Between Community Colleges with AACC?

Is it feasible to transfer from one community college to another using the AACC system? I'm looking for insights from people who have done something similar.

Definitely, transferring from one community college to another is completely feasible, but the specific process may depend on the colleges concerned and potential agreements they might have. When you mention AACC system, I'm assuming you're referring to the American Association of Community Colleges. This organization doesn't specifically handle transfer agreements between colleges, but it does provide resources and advocacy on issues related to community colleges, including policies related to transfer students.

One route you could take when wanting to transfer would be to review potential articulation agreements between the two colleges in question. An articulation agreement is a contract between institutions that maps course equivalencies to enable students to make a smooth transition from one institution to another. If such an agreement exists between the community colleges you are considering, it could make your transfer process smoother.

Also, consider speaking with a counselor at both your current institution and the one to which you plan to transfer. They can help ensure that your course credits will be accepted at the new school and that you're taking the necessary steps for admission into your desired program.

In general, it's important to plan ahead and understand the requirements of both schools to ensure a successful transfer. The more you understand about the process and what's required, the better positioned you'll be to make a successful move. Don't hesitate to reach out to admissions offices and academic advisors at both schools for advice.

Remember that every school is different, so make sure to ask about transfer policies directly at each institution!
