Credits from other colleges don’t automatically transfer to AACC. In conjunction with content matter experts in the academic departments, our records and registration team reviews every course and credit individually to determine which ones count toward your program at AACC. Check out our Transfer Credit Equivalency Database that shows how courses from other institutions may transfer to AACC. Knowing which may transfer and which may not will help you understand our final decisions about transfer credit.

1. Before you meet with an advisor, submit official, sealed transcripts from each institution you’ve attended. The certified e-transcript is the preferred method of receiving transcripts. Most institutions offer official electronic PDF transcripts. In that case, have your previous institution indicate that the official transcript be sent to records@aacc.edu through a third party transcript delivery service.  
   Note: Documents submitted as email attachments are considered unofficial. AACC must receive your transcript within one year of the date they are printed and sealed.
   
2. That’s it! After your transcript has been reviewed, you will be able to view your transfer credit summary in your MyAACC account under Self Services > Academics (the little graduation hat icon) > Institutions Attended. Click "Expand all" to see specific coursework from each institution. This will be completed within 20 business days from the time we receive your official transcript.

Before considering transfer credits from institutions outside the U.S., AACC requires students to have their transcripts reviewed on a course-by-course basis by one of our approved professional transcript evaluation services: 

• World Education Services (WES)
• SPANTRAN, The Evaluation Company
• National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) International Evaluation Services (only for students in the financial accounting certificate program leading to the CPA examination)
• Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE) "Scholar Profiles are based on unofficial documents and therefore will be considered unofficial. Please request a standard evaluation to meet the official college transcript standard."

• Advanced Placement (AP) scores of 3 in most subjects are accepted at AACC.
• Cambridge International Assessment Examinations (Cambridge AICE) scores of C (40 points) are accepted in the five AS level exams recommended by the American Council on Education (ACE)
• College Level Examination Programs (CLEP)
• International Baccalaureate (IB) scores are accepted by AACC. Generally scores of 5 and higher are accepted at AACC. Go to the Transfer Credit Equivalency Database and select International Baccalaureate as the institution to learn more.
• Credit by Examination may be possible in subjects for which College-Level Examinations (CLEP) are not available. The exam is graded on a pass/fail basis and does not affect the student’s GPA at AACC. Passing grades will be listed on the student’s academic record as transfer of credit. Students may not take a challenge exam for a course they have failed.

Articulation agreements are a type of educational partnership where an institution agrees to accept certain credits that were earned at a different educational institution. Below you will find our agreements with Anne Arundel County Public Schools.

• Anne Arundel County Schools Articulation Agreement
• Anne Arundel County Public Schools Proficiency Credit Agreement
• Board of Education Articulation Agreement
• Fort Meade Child and Youth Services Articulation Agreement

In cases where national standardized exams or challenge exams are not available, a student may be able to complete a portfolio that demonstrates his/her experience and college-level learning. In some cases, AACC will consider a portfolio, if that experience demonstrates mastery of skills or concepts taught within an AACC degree or certificate program.

If you completed training through the U.S. military, submit your official Joint Services transcript (Army, Navy, Coast Guard or Marines), Community College of the Air Force transcript or a photocopy of your DD-214. We count your basic training as AACC’s general education health/fitness/wellness requirement, and we award credit for other military training and occupations using the American Council on Education credit recommendations when a similar discipline is offered at AACC.

AACC partners with Anne Arundel County Public Schools (AACPS) to align high school coursework with AACC college courses that leads to proficiency credit.

They further agree that students from Holistic Massage Institute will be allowed to transfer credits earned for their certificate, with the passing of the MBLEx, to AACC. The following general principles guide the operation of this agreement.

3. Students must present official documentation demonstrating passage of the MBLEx to the Office of Records and Registration. Current license will be required if the MBLEx is more than 4 years old. After receipt of the above, the college will award the appropriate transfer credit toward the A.A.S. Massage Therapy degree.

RE: Articulated Credit for Engagement Coach Training Courses

We have examined the credentials of [student, insert name] and have determined that the student holds a current certification as either an Associate Certified Coach, Professional Certified Coach or Master Certified Coach Credential through the International Coach Federation. The following courses and credits have been earned through the college's internal articulation agreement:

EDU 201 - Engagement Coaching I - Engage/3 credit hours

EDU 202 - Engagement Coaching II - Expand/3 credit hours

EDU 203 - Engagement Coaching Ill - Experience/3 credit hours

The student is aware that these nine credits will be posted to the transcript as articulated credits and carry no grade.

Attached is a photocopy of the student's current ICF certification.

Yes, but we recommend starting early and completing the credit transfer process before registering for courses. If that’s not possible, meet with an advisor to develop an educational plan, and provide an unofficial copy of your transcripts to help your advisor develop your schedule.

No. Credit will be awarded for the successfully completed courses as appropriate. The grades you earned at other institutions will not transfer and will not affect your AACC grade point average.

Some Ds will transfer in some cases.

Assessment tests are mandatory for all students (not just transfer students) unless you have transferable credits that are equivalent to Academic and Writing Research 1 (ENG-101) and general education math courses.

In general, you should assume that about two-thirds of your total quarter-hours earned will transfer as term hours.
