Transfer to CCC From Another College Students who wish to transfer to CCC should follow the established admissions procedures. Students placed on academic probation or dismissed by their previous college will be placed on first probation when they are admitted to Cuyahoga Community College. Students will then remain on first probation until they have successfully completed 15 or more quarter credits or until they have been placed on second probation. See ACADEMIC PROBATION, in this catalog. If a student was dismissed for disciplinary reasons from his or her last college, the student will have to be eligible to return to that institution before he or she can be considered for admission to Cuyahoga Community College. A student may, however, petition the Director of Admissions and Records at a CCC campus for exemption from this policy. The petition will be considered by the Admissions Board. The acceptance of transfer credits by Cuyahoga Community College will be defined to the extent feasible within the context of agreements and working relationships between Cuyahoga Community College and other institutions of higher learning. Transfer credit is accepted from all colleges or universities with a C or higher rating in the current American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) publication entitled Transfer Credit Practices or which have full membership in the appropriate regional accrediting association. New institutions will be given every consideration and those that are in formal accredition dialogue (candidate status) with their regional accrediting agency will be considered as possessing a C rating according to AACRAO's standards. Transfer credit will be awarded for courses earned through an institution of higher education's Credit by Examination Program including CLEP and Advanced Placement if that institution has CLEP and Advanced Placement as part of the Credit by Examination Program. Transfer credit will be awarded for courses earned through the college-level United States Armed Forces Institute (U .S.A.F.!.).
Credit by Examination Credit may be awarded to registered students upon demonstration of knowledge comparable to that gained through college courses. Demonstration of knowledge may be measured by the examinations listed below. Neither letter symbols nor quality points will be awarded for such credit by examination nor will credit granted be used in calculating a student's grade point average at Cuyahoga Community College. A student may be awarded a maximum of 45 credits through anyone or a combination of all three methods of evaluation. Academic credit awarded by examination will not be applied to the residency requirement for graduation from the College.
Advanced Placement The College will recognize exceptional academic achievement as measured by the College Entrance Examination Board's Advanced Placement Program. The College will award credit for an advanced placement score of three or higher.
