What transfer agreements exist at Frederick Community College?

Can anyone share information about transfer agreements Frederick Community College holds with other universities? I want to ensure my credits transfer smoothly and explore potential schools to attend after FCC.

Frederick Community College (FCC) has established several transfer agreements, also known as articulation agreements, with universities both within and outside Maryland. The aim of these agreements is to ease the transition of FCC students to four-year colleges and universities by ensuring that academic credits earned at FCC are accepted at the recipient schools.

FCC has transfer agreements with all public four-year institutions in Maryland, including the University of Maryland (College Park, Baltimore, Baltimore County, Shady Grove, and Eastern Shore), Towson University, Salisbury University, and others. These agreements vary from program-specific to general transfer.

FCC has partnered with a select number of private colleges and universities in Maryland and the surrounding areas, such as McDaniel College, Hood College, and George Washington University. The specifics of these agreements depend on the program of study.

While it's great that the FCC has these relationships with other institutions, it's important to remember that the transferability of credits depends heavily on the specific programs and courses taken at the FCC. Therefore, it's strongly recommended that students work closely with their academic advisors or counselors at FCC and at their intended transfer institution to ensure that all credits will transfer and will apply to their desired degree.

Additionally, most agreements specify that students must maintain a certain GPA and meet other requirements like prerequisite coursework, so keep that in mind while planning your time at FCC. The goal is to help FCC students transition seamlessly to a four-year institution and complete a bachelor's degree in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.
