New Hampshire community colleges for university transfer

I'm a high school junior considering community colleges in New Hampshire with plans to transfer to a university later. Does anyone have recommendations for which community colleges have good transfer programs?

One community college worth considering in New Hampshire is the Community College System of New Hampshire (CCSNH) which includes seven community colleges dotted throughout the state: White Mountains Community College, Lakes Region Community College, Manchester Community College, Nashua Community College, Great Bay Community College, NHTI-Concord's Community College, and River Valley Community College.

Each of these community colleges in the CCSNH system has an agreement for a smooth transition to the University System of New Hampshire, which includes four-year institutions like the University of New Hampshire, Plymouth State University, Keene State College, and Granite State College. This way, you can earn an associate degree at the community college level then seamlessly transfer to continue your education at a four-year institution.

One of the key benefits of attending a college in the CCSNH is what's known as the Dual NH program. This framework allows community college students to simultaneously enroll in one of the state's public universities. This can provide a smoother transition and provide additional opportunities to acclimate to university life before officially transferring.

Each of these schools provides a wide array of Associate programs, so you can tailor your studies to your career aspirations. As each campus can offer slightly different programs and opportunities, it might be worth reviewing each one's website or reaching out to their admissions offices to see which one best aligns with your academic interests and goals.

Remember, the ultimate goal is to prepare for a successful transition to a four-year program so keep your long-term objectives in mind when picking a community college.
