We will be hosting our biannual information session for interested transfers on Friday, February 18. The information session will take place at 10 AM in the Newcomb Hall Theater.
The session will then be followed by a walking tour of Grounds at 11AM. This will be a scaled-down program compared to the one we hosted in the Fall. We expect the day to last from 10-12:30 and encourage students to visit classes at other times during the day or on Thursday before the event.
To register, please go to our registration page and click “Transfer Student.”Click here for more info on directions to UVA and Charlottesville.
Here is where you can get updated information about transferring to the four year school of your choice.
So You Want to Transfer?
All those students planning on transferring to a four year school next fall: Make sure all of your information has been sent to the transfer school! Many deadlines have already past but others will be coming up very soon.
Many students come out of high school expecting college will be exciting and easily handled. Many have no idea what they want to do ... except go to college.
Knowing what you want is important. You need to pick a direction. You need to know that your path is achievable. Planning that path is vital.
Transferring to a four year school is a process not just an event. Talk to a counselor as you plan your future.

Are you Transferring this year?
If you are planning to transfer to a four year school there are a number of things you need to keep in mind:
First: Do you know the deadlines for Spring transfer? Fall transfer?
Second; Have you met with the tranfer counselor at the four year school and had your unofficial transcript evaluated?
Third: Have you filled out your graduation application for CVCC?
Fourth: Do you meet guaranteed admission requirements at the four year school and have you checked on that to be sure? The General Studies degree is not accepted for guaranteed admissions by many schools.
Fifth: Be aware that if your GPA is high enough you may be eligible for the transfer scholarship sponsored by the state. If you have applied for graduation this will be noted on your transcript.
Last but not least, don't guess, don't assume, don't depend on what "they" say; meet with a CVCC counselor during spring/summer registration and have a degree check done and a comparison to the four year school.

Transferring in Two Years
Folks, the reason we publish a college catalog with curriculum's inside is because those people who want to transfer in two calendar years need to understand what it is going to take for them to make that happen.
If a curriculum says you need to take a minimum of 14-15 credits a semester then taking the bare minimum of 12 credits so you will be full time is not going to get you graduated with you expect.
And if you know what you want to major in at the four year school, you need to start working with that school at least your second semester here...we are not experts on what a four year school expects for each and every program they offer.
YOU must start to take responsibility for your education.
