How does the Concorde Career College transfer credit calculator work?

I'm thinking of attending Concorde Career College, but I want to understand how their transfer credit calculator works to see how many of my existing credits will be accepted. Has anyone used it before? How accurate and student-friendly is it?

The Concorde Career College's transfer credit calculator is a useful tool that can help you determine how many of your prior earned credits will be eligible for transfer into the college's programs.

To use it, first, you'd typically have to enter in detailed information about each of your previous courses including the name of the course, the grade you received, and the number of credit hours. You may also need to indicate the accreditation of the institution you are transferring the credits from, as this can influence the acceptance of credits.

After you've entered all of the relevant information regarding your previous coursework, the calculator will analyze the data and provide you with an estimate of how many of these credits may be applicable towards the degree program you're interested in at Concorde Career College.

Please remember that the amounts provided by the calculator are estimates and the results will be subject to validation and approval by the registrar's office at Concorde. The calculator is generally considered user-friendly and a helpful tool in the initial stages of your transfer process, but an official evaluation by the College's office will give you the most accurate gauge of transfer potential.

I've heard from many students who have found it pretty straightforward to use, but it must be understood that the outcome can vary depending on the specific criteria set by each program of study at Concorde. In particular, the college might not accept credits for courses that don't align with the program's curriculum, or from institutions without recognized accreditation.

So, while the tool is definitely beneficial in giving you a general idea of potential transfer credit, I would recommend also speaking directly with an admissions counselor at Concorde for a more personalized evaluation. They can provide deeper insight and answer any specific questions you might have about the transition.
