Program-to-Program Transfer and Advance Standing Information
Program to Program Transfer Information
Many students have completed credit courses through their employer or other institutions. Credits successfully completed through accredited schools may be transferred to MATC and applied to the Associate Degree. Students are asked to supply a formal transcript that is then reviewed for acceptance of transfer. MATC has also developed many formal agreements with four-year colleges and universities that enables students and graduates to transfer their credits earned in an Associate Degree program to a specific institution. This program-to-program transfer allows you to continue your studies towards completion of a four-year degree.
Advance Standing
Many adult learners have completed training and education through other institutions, their employers or have gained experience through years of work. Documentation of those achievements can be used to equate with the competencies in the program courses through the granting of advanced standing or experiential credit. Students are asked to provide transcripts from other accredited institutions, documentation from employers for training and/or a summary of their experience, which is reviewed, to determine if course competencies have been met.
Gaining advanced standing or experiential credit does not provide a grade for a course. It simply shows that the course requirements have been met and the student no longer is required to take that course to receive the degree.
