Transferring credit from other colleges
When the Welcome Center has received your application, program application fees, and all official transcripts, an evaluation will be completed
to determine college course adequacy. A letter will then be sent to you regarding
your status. If you have a Bachelor’s degree, you will receive credit for completion
of English 101, English 102, PE and Humanities. However, the grades
for English 101 and 102 are included for points in the final selection, it is your responsibility to
submit course descriptions along with your application for review.
Course Adequacy
Course numbers and titles vary from college to college. Adequacy of transfer credits
is determined by course content. Course credit hours and adequacy will be determined
by Clark College. It may be necessary for candidates to submit course descriptions and/or
syllabi to determine adequacy. Submitting a complete syllabus* will allow for the most
accurate evaluation. Courses accepted as equivalent at one college may not be equivalent
at another college.
English Composition and General (non-science) courses:
For each course you wish to transfer, submit the course description(s) and a copy of the
catalog cover that verifies the college and the year you took the course(s). Be aware
that for English 102, a syllabus may be required to verify that a research paper was
included in the course.
Science:
Requires a copy of the syllabus* from each course you wish to be evaluated.
The syllabus must show the appropriate year and quarter you took the course. IF a syllabus
showing the appropriate year and quarter is not available, a letter from the college’s
Science Department needs to accompany the syllabus. The cover letter must verify the content
and coverage of the course that was taken is the same as listed on the syllabus being sent,
and must state the name of the text used during the quarter you took the course(s).
*A syllabus is a detailed outline of a course, usually handed out by the instructor the
first day of class. It includes information such as text book(s), chapters studied,
subjects covered, class assignments, lab assignments, test and quiz schedule,
grading policies, attendance requirements., etc.
