How does the Barton College transfer tool work?

I'm planning to transfer to Barton College and heard about a transfer tool they offer. Can someone explain how this tool works and how it might assist me in the transfer process?

Barton College's transfer tool is designed to make the process of transferring credits as smooth as possible. This tool essentially helps you see how your completed coursework from another institution would translate into credits at Barton College. Here's a brief explanation of how it works:

Firstly, you need to go to the transfer tool on the Barton College website. There, you can select your current/previous institution and then add the courses you've taken. Once you input the courses, the tool will show the equivalent course at Barton College, if it exists. This essentially gives you a sense of how your academic progress might transfer over.

However, there are some things to note:

1. The tool is not a guarantee of transfer credit acceptance, but it's a useful starting point for understanding how your previous coursework might match up with the Barton curriculum.

2. Just because a course doesn't appear in the database doesn't necessarily mean it won't transfer. It simply could mean that the course hasn't been evaluated previously.

3. For official transfer credit evaluation and for this tool to be most beneficial, it's best to work closely with an admissions counselor at Barton College.

By understanding how your credits transfer, you can better plan your coursework at Barton College and make sure you're fulfilling all the necessary requirements for your intended major or program.
