Community college credits to UF transfer

I'm currently attending Broward College, and my goal is to transfer to the University of Florida. Does anyone know how credits transfer from Broward to UF? Are there specific courses that are guaranteed to transfer?

The University of Florida (UF) does have an established process for accepting transfer credits from Florida community colleges, including Broward college. UF is a part of the state-wide articulation agreement which means every course at Broward College has a direct equivalent at UF. If you take a course at Broward based on the state-wide course numbering system, you'll be able to transfer the course to UF as long as you've earned a C or better.

However, just because a course can transfer, doesn't mean it will apply towards your intended major's specific requirements. While core classes in English, Math, and Science generally transfer directly, specialized or major-specific courses may not count towards your degree requirements at UF.

The best way to ensure you're taking transferable courses that will also count towards your degree requirements at UF is to have a look at UF's Transfer Admissions page and consult with both a Broward College academic advisor and a UF academic advisor in your intended major.

Use the Florida Statewide Course Numbering System and Florida Shines website, which offers an online tool to establish course equivalences among Florida's public and participating private institutions of higher education. This should help you to determine if a specific course at Broward College has an equivalent at UF.

Remember to stay proactive in your planning. Credit transferability is an important step, but you will also need to ensure that you're meeting the requirements for admission to your intended major. Even if you're taking all the right courses for transfer and receiving good grades, you should verify that your GPA and prerequisite courses align with UF's specific requirements for your intended major.
