2019-2020 Catalog

Transfer-in students

BCC welcomes transfer-in students, including veterans with prior military training and/or experience. Applicants requesting transfer of previous college experience to BCC must provide BCC with official transcripts from their previous college(s) and high school. Official transcripts are also needed to meet the admission requirements for Nursing and Allied Health.

BCC may grant credit from regionally accredited institutions where a grade of C (2.000) or better has been earned and where the course content parallels the requirements in a student’s pro- gram at BCC. Students may also request the granting of credit for transfer courses that are not degree requirements if the courses can be applied toward completion of the MassTransfer general education block (Gen Ed Foundation), provided the credits are added to the BCC transcript prior to graduation.

Transfer students planning to graduate from BCC may not account for more than three quarters of a program’s graduation credit requirements by transfer, credit by exam, prior learning experiences or any combination of these.

International transcripts must be reviewed by an external evaluation service. Contact the International Admissions Counselor at 413-236-1636 for more information.
