Transfer Students
Students may transfer in up to 90 credits. Graduation requirement is 120 credits. Students may be over the "120" credit if they transfer in the complete allowance of 90 credits.
If the student has earned an A.A.S degree from an institution that has an articulation agreement with CSE, they will generally be required to take CSE 200 and Element III for their general education requirements. All transfer students will be assessed individually by the Admissions Office for correct placement in General Education Requirements.
Students transferring from a school without a current CSE Articulation agreement will be evaluated on an individual basis for transfer credit acceptance.
Students transferring into CSE with an Associate's Degree (A.S.) will be required to take Element III of the College general education program.
