Which Kapiolani Community College classes don't transfer?

I'm looking at classes at Kapiolani Community College and want to know which ones aren't eligible for transfer. How can I find out which credits won't make the cut before I start?

Typically, the best way to ensure the transferability of community college courses is to consult the transfer equivalency guide or database provided by the 4-year university you plan to attend. Some colleges provide an online resource that allows students to input their community college courses and see how they transfer.

Keep in mind that, even with this resource, it's always a good idea to verify this information with the 4-year institution and, if possible, to have a conversation with a transfer admissions officer at the destination school. They are knowledgeable about these matters and should be able to help.

For classes at Kapiolani Community College in particular, you might also try reaching out to the school's registrar or academic counseling office. They could provide course numbers and descriptions that would let you look each course up in the transfer guide.

While general education and core classes are often likely to transfer, keep in mind that some vocational or career-specific programs might not. It's important to remember each school has their own transfer policies and what works for one school may not work for another. For example, one institution may accept all the credits while another accepts none from a specific course.

In summary, don’t make assumptions—always confirm with both schools and communicate clearly about your plans. It's worth that extra effort so you don't end up repeating courses or extending your time in school.
