Sterling College Transfer: Credits and Requirements

I'm looking at transferring to Sterling College and I'm unsure about the transfer credits and the requirements. Does anyone have experience with this college's transfer process? What should I expect in terms of evaluating my credits?

As a transfer applicant to Sterling College, your experiences can vary depending upon the courses you've taken before and at what institution.

To start with, it's important to note that Sterling College will review your college-level courses, and they can potentially transfer these as credit towards your degree. It's not uncommon for general education courses, or similar foundation courses in your chosen field, to transfer successfully.

However, not all credits are guaranteed to transfer. The transferability of your courses will depend on several factors including the grade you received in the course (usually a C or higher is needed), the similarity of the course to those offered at Sterling, and whether the course was taken at a regionally accredited institution.

To obtain a review of your transcripts and an estimation of how many credits will transfer, you would typically need to apply to the school and submit all your official transcripts. Once the college receives your transcripts, they will conduct an audit to determine which credits will transfer.

Remember that it's important to talk to an academic advisor at Sterling College or an admissions counselor to help with your transfer process. They can provide a more personalized answer based on your specific circumstances and academic history. They can also guide you on meeting the core requirements and potential options if some of your credits don’t transfer.

I hope this gives you a general understanding of what to expect during the transfer process at Sterling College. Best of luck with your process!
