Will Lackawanna College credits transfer to other schools?

I'm currently studying at Lackawanna College but planning to transfer soon. Has anyone had experience with transferring credits from Lackawanna to another college?

Yes, while the transferability of credits can vary based on the specific course, your academic performance, and the institution to which you're transferring, Lackawanna College is a regionally accredited institution, which generally allows for broad transferability of credits to other colleges and universities.

However, keep in mind that some institutions may have specific requirements or restrictions when it comes to accepting transfer credits. For instance, some schools will only accept transfer credits for courses in which you've earned a certain grade (often a C or above). Others might limit the number of credits you can transfer. Plus, certain courses might not match up exactly with the offerings at the other college, which can create some difficulties in transferring those specific credits.

The specific procedures and policies can vary widely from one institution to another. Therefore, it's crucial that you get in touch with the admissions office or registrar at the college you're considering transferring to. They can provide more specific information about their transfer credit policies. You may also want to speak with your academic adviser at Lackawanna who might be familiar with the transfer paths other students have taken.

For instance, if you're considering a university in Pennsylvania, Lackawanna College may have agreements with the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE), which allows students to transfer credits more easily within the state system. But again, each school is different, so it's always best to confirm.
