Transfer Services and Programs

Burlington County College has developed comprehensive Guaranteed Transfer programs and Articulation agreements with many other prestigious colleges and universities. These agreements are designed to simplify our graduates' ability to transfer their credits into four-year institutions, and to work toward a baccalaureate degree without loss of time or credits.

Applying for Transfer

Are you one of the many BCC students who plans to transfer to a four-year institution after completing your associate's degree here? Most likely, you have questions about the transfer issue. For example:

  • How, where and when should you apply for transfer?
  • Does the transfer college of your choice offer your major, and will it accept your BCC credits?
  • What are Guaranteed Transfer Programs? Which schools offer dual admission with BCC? Are there special entrance requirements?
  • What Articulation Agreements does BCC offer? With which schools?
  • Can you only transfer your credits into schools with which BCC has an agreement?

 

Tips for transfer applicants:

  • Remember to apply for graduation. Graduation is not automatic. You should apply in the semester in which you will earn your 48th credit. See Graduating from BCC
  • Do your "homework" by researching the colleges or universities you'd like pursue*
  • Get your application(s) early
  • Arrange for the Registration Office to send out a current transcript and one at the end the semester
  • Burlington County College's CEEB code is 2180.
  • Type up a few envelopes with the transfer college's address and ask for recommendations
  • Find out whether or not you'll need high school transcripts and allow enough time to get them
  • Write an essay to describe any discrepancies in your college record
  • DON'T wait until the last minute to check your transferable courses!

The current catalogs for hundreds of colleges and universities are available on the second floor of the Pemberton campus library. The TEC Library contains a limited selection of catalogs in the TEC Library.

Applications for most area school can also be found at the Library. They are currently housed behind the main circulation desk. You may also visit the college or university's web site. Many offer the opportunity to apply online.

Please note: BCC depends upon the willingness of the colleges and universities to send us their applications. The above applications are generally available by the end of September for the next academic year.

Guaranteed Transfer Programs

Articulation Agreements

Articulation agreements between other 4-yr institutions and BCC benefit our students in transferring their courses and credits. There are articulation books currently housed in both college Libraries (Pemberton and TEC) and in the Academic Support Services Office in Parker 311, Pemberton. These books contain a wealth of information on the various colleges.

A list of BCC's courses and their corresponding transfer course numbers (if they transfer) at other area colleges are available in online. If there is not a course number after the BCC course, that means the college does not have a course equivalent to that course. They may accept it as elective credit, or may not accept the course at all.

Transfering to Schools Not on the Guaranteed Transfer Program or Articulation Agreement Lists
Is your number one transfer school not on BCC's Dual Admission/Transfer List? No problem. BCC's credits are well-respected at schools across the country. Our graduates can - and have -- transferred into many schools with which BCC does not have a formal Dual Admissions or Transfer Agreement, including even the most elite institutions. If you're interested in applying to one of these schools, it is critical that you work with your advisor/counselor to plan your academic program to meet the entrance requirements of the transfer school. This will save you time and money when you transfer.
