Transferring Credit to FRCC

FRCC does not require transcripts from previous high schools or colleges for admission. However, if a student plans to complete a degree or certificate with applicable transfer credit, an official transcript must be sent directly to the college from the institution where the credits were earned. As part of this process, students should complete a Transfer Credit Evaluation Request Form, available from the Admissions and Records Office.

The transfer of academic credit to the college is governed by the following policies or procedures:

  • A grade of "C" or better is required for transfer. Transfer credit will not be awarded for courses with "D", "F" or "U" grades.
  • The college may examine credits to ensure that the content is not outdated or obsolete.
  • Transfer credit is accepted from postsecondary institutions that are accredited by one of the approved six (6) regional accrediting associations or by specified articulation agreements.
  • Grades for courses transferred to FRCC are not calculated in the FRCC GPA.
