If an equivalency table is not available, the catalogs of courses from the two institutions will most likely become your most valuable resource. Your goal will be to take courses that will transfer, and preferably satisfy both general education and major requirements at your transfer school. I took courses previously at a CTC and I am a non-traditional student returning to school to finish my Bachelor ' s degree . When I first atten ded college, there were no agreements between institutions. Generally speaking colleges and universities function based on what agreements are in place now, rather than what was in place when you were previously enrolled in school.
Many schools have no imposed time limits on when general education courses are taken.
You should find that college-level general education courses basically count the same as if you had taken them very recently. Technical or major-specific courses may need to be retaken, as there may be time limits on when they must be taken to meet requirements. Be sure to check with your 4-year school about their transfer policy and your specific situation. The receiving school will apply a mathematical formula in figuring how your quarter credits will equate to semester credits. For example, if you took a 4 quarter-credit course, it would be equated to 2.67 semester credits at your receiving school.
