Students transferring to EACC from another institution should request official transcripts of their academic records to be sent directly to the Office of Admission and Registration. The registration process cannot be completed without the official transcript(s).
Credit accepted for transfer must have been earned at an accredited college or university. Transfer credit will be accepted for satisfactorily completed college-level courses for which EACC offers equivalent courses. Transfer courses for which EACC offers no equivalent courses will be evaluated for possible general elective credit. Transcripts from non-accredited colleges will be evaluated on the same basis as that employed by the state university of the state in which the transfer college is located. It is highly recommended that college catalogs with descriptions of courses being transferred from out-of-state schools or earlier than five previous years be submitted along with the transcript. This will allow a more knowledgeable evaluation of the courses.
Students must be in good academic standing at the last institution attended. Entering transfer students must have a cumulative grade point average, which falls within EACC’s guidelines for good academic standing. Students on academic suspension from another institution will be eligible for admission only after having remained out of school for one semester (not including a summer term) or being eligible to return to the previous institution.
Transfer credit will only be evaluated and added to a permanent record for those students who are currently enrolled as a degree-seeking candidate at EACC. Grades earned in transfer courses are considered in calculating students’ grade point averages at EACC. Grades of “D” or better will transfer to EACC; however, “D” grades transferred into EACC will not apply toward an AA or AS transfer degree, AAS-EMT/Paramedic degree, or AAS-Nursing degree.
Vocational or technically oriented courses will be accepted when directly related to a particular Applied Science program at EACC and will be applicable only toward the appropriate Associate of Applied Science degree.
A. Permanent Transfer Status Students: previously enrolled in other post-secondary institutions must provide evidence of good standing at those institutions. An official transcript should be sent to the Office of Admission and Registration at EACC from each institution previously attended before or at the time of pre-registration for classes. Transcripts must be submitted before registration. New students who are not eligible to return to their previous institution will not be considered for admission to EACC until they have been out of school for at least one regular term (fall or spring), or are eligible to return to the previous institution. Non-attendance for the summer term will not fulfill this requirement.
B. Transient Transfer Status: Students maintaining primary enrollment at another institution must submit a letter of good standing to the Office of Admission and Registration before registration. A new application and letter of good standing must be submitted each term.
New students transferring to EACC from an accredited two- or four-year institution must submit an official transcript which shows successful completion of or official withdrawal from college-level English and mathematics courses to be exempted from testing.
International applicants who are seeking admission as transfers from another college or university in the U.S. must also submit to EACC a Form I-20AB, or other appropriate form, which must be approved by the U.S. Department of Justice, Immigration, and Naturalization Service. Transfer students must be in good standing at the institution from which they are transferring, and must have a minimum grade point average of 2.00.
East Arkansas Community College offers the following degrees to students interested in transferring to a four-year college or university: Certificate in General Studies, Associate of Arts, Associate of Science in Business, Associate of Science in Criminal Justice, and Associate of Science in Education.
Transferability of Courses - Statewide Articulation Agreement
Arkansas Act 98 of 1989 provides that the State Board of Higher Education “shall establish in consultation with the colleges and universities a minimum core of courses which shall apply toward the general education core curriculum requirements for baccalaureate degrees at state supported institutions of higher education and which shall be fully transferable between state institutions.”
The Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) contains information about the transferability of courses within Arkansas public colleges and universities. Students are guaranteed the transfer of applicable credits and the equitable treatment in the application of credits for the admissions and degree requirements. Course transferability is not guaranteed for courses listed in ACTS as “No Comparable Course.” Additionally, courses with a grade of “D” frequently do not transfer and institutional policies may vary. ACTS may be accessed on the Internet by going to the ADHE website and selecting Course Transfer (www.adhe.edu).
ACTS course equivalency numbers for EACC courses are listed below and under each course description in the departmental sections of the catalog.
