Students must enroll at MCC to qualify for transfer credits. Only official transcripts will be evaluated. Official transcripts are those send directly to MCC from the institution where the credit was earned. When a student has received a two- or four-year degree from another institution, an evaluation is done if the student makes the request. Evaluation of post-secondary transcripts may take up to six weeks after the transcript is received. Students planning to transfer to MCC should have transcripts from other institutions sent to the college well in advance of the first semester of attendance. Only credits earned from a regionally accredited institution of higher learning are accepted.
Equivalent courses may be accepted in transfer for corresponding MCC courses. If a course has no equivalent at MCC, it may be used as an elective. Credits, not grades are accepted for courses in which a grade of "C" or better was earned.
MCC is based on a semester system; two-thirds credit is granted for courses earned at an institution on terms or quarters. It is the student's responsibility to follow up on the credit evaluation Students receive a copy of the evaluation and a copy is placed in the student's file with the transcript. Students may request a review of the evaluation. Questions regarding the evaluation should be directed to the
Director of Enrollment Services.
