Transfer Credit Policy 314.02
Johnson County Community College
Series: 300 Students
Section: Academic Policies

Applicability: This Policy applies to all Johnson County Community College (“JCCC” or the “College”) students.

Purpose: The purpose of this Policy is to establish standards and procedures for the evaluation and awarding of transfer credit.

Statement:

In most instances, transfer credits will be accepted from colleges and universities that are accredited or hold candidacy status with the Higher Learning Commission, Middle States Commission on Higher Education, New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges or other accrediting bodies as specifically approved by the President or designee.

Credit from non-U.S. schools will be considered for elective credit on a case-by-case basis. To receive consideration for such credits, the student must have the student’s transcript evaluated by a NACES-approved evaluator or InCred evaluation services at the student’s expense.

All transfer credit will be equated to the semester hour system. All transfer credits earned with a D grade or higher will be articulated. The associated quality points and grade points will be included in the student’s cumulative grade point average (“GPA”), as defined in Grading System Policy 314.04.
