DO YOU NEED HELP?
College transfer can be a challenge. It can be complex and expensive if not planned. On the other hand, college transfer can save you thousands of dollars when planning and patience are applied. CT.Net offers a TOLL FREE help line for students seeking advice independent of institution or State.
College transfer often means you have to take more courses and more credits to graduate, since some credits and courses won't count toward eventual degree requirements. It can be twelve or more credits on average per student who transfers once because the transition between schools is not always seamless. Traditional students who attend just one institution and graduate often follow a straighter line and take less course credits. Transfer introduces the possibility of some course credits not counting. This problem is most likely revealed within the student transfers and learns the institutions won't count all the prior courses. The assessment and articulation process usually occurs after enrollment. Thus the surprise that could unfold one, two or more semester down the road. This often requires you to take additional courses to satisfy requirements and means you have to spend more money with the institution as well.
Whether you are coming back to college with some courses under your belt, or just thinking about changing schools or just seeking a course or two to accelerate completing your degree during the summer, planning is key. Spending a little bit of effort up front can save you thousands of dollars and in some cases, a year or more of time. We call this the "transfer tax" and we are here to help you avoid paying it.
College Transfer is often complicated by lack of access to institutional policies and procedures. Don't worry, you are not alone. Six in ten students who complete their undergraduate degree are now transfer students. This is a little known fact in higher education circles. We can help you overcome the challenges, no matter where you are in the transfer cycle.
