Credit Transfer Basics Concurrent enrollment: Students in high school can take college classes for transcripted credit, simultaneously fulfilling the high school course requirement. Benefits: graduate early, skip introductory courses, have more time for dual major, and save money. Also, stay focused in the senior year. Appeal: alternative to AP or IB, both of which base success or failure on a single high-stakes test and do not provide transcipted credit. Local environment taught by certified instructors with discipline- specific content knowledge. College courses, not college-level.

Credit Transfer Basics A student earns 12 credits – then what? At UConn… First-year student for purposes of scholarships and aid Max 90 transfer credits accepted Meet with an advisors within first eight weeks to elect to transfer credit from non-degree transcript Recognize their body of coursework as if they were transferring second semester sophomores GPA also transfers!
