Credit for Prior Learning: Transfer Credit

Transferring Credits to Kennebec Valley Community College

Students who have earned college credit at another institution may be eligible for transfer credits. College transfer credits are evaluated and awarded to students once accepted into a program of study at Kennebec Valley Community College. If  the coursework you want to transfer is equivalent to the program course requirements, and you passed with a grade of C or better, the College will award transfer credit. Transfer of credit requires submission of an official transcript(s). 

Will Transfer Credits be calculated into my GPA?

Grades earned in the transferred course(s) are not computed in the grade point average. 

Any courses taken at KVCC prior to admission into a specific program will transfer into the program as long as the course meets the requirements and grade required for that program. This grade is computed in the cumulative grade point average. 

Residency Requirement

A student must earn a minimum of 25 percent of his/her certificate or degree credits from KVCC.
