How do CSUSB credits transfer to Victor Valley College?

I'm planning to move closer to home and was wondering how transferring my credits from CSUSB to Victor Valley College works. Are there specific guidelines or things I should know about to make sure I can continue smoothly?

In general, a simple guideline to bear in mind when transferring credits between institutions is called the "2 + 2 arrangement." This rule states that credits obtained from a two-year college (like Victor Valley College) can generally be transferred to a four-year institution (like CSUSB), often fulfilling the first two years of a bachelor's degree.

However, it seems you are looking to move in the opposite direction -- from a four-year university, CSUSB, to a two-year college, Victor Valley College. To do this, you would need to get in touch with the registrar or admission office at Victor Valley College to obtain specific policies and guidelines.

Generally, credit transfer depends on the congruence of coursework and the receiving institution's policies. If your CSUSB classes align with the curriculum at Victor Valley College, or if Victor Valley College accepts a specific number of credits from a four-year university, it is likely that your credits will transfer.

Note that some courses might transfer as elective credits rather than equivalents for specific courses at Victor Valley College. You may also be subject to a limit of transferable credits, which is something you might want to verify.

Still, it's important to fully understand the credit transfer policy of Victor Valley College, so make sure to reach out to their admissions office or an academic adviser. They can provide the detailed and accurate information you need to make sure your transition goes smoothly.
