We're here to make your transfer process as seamless as possible! We have partnerships and transfer agreements with Maryland universities, as well as many out-of-state and online institutions so you can easily transfer when you're ready. 

Transfer agreements (or “articulation agreements,” as they’re officially called) are formal arrangements between institutions that allow certain credits to transfer seamlessly from one school to the other. AACC has established transfer agreements with dozens of schools in and outside Maryland for a variety of majors. This gives you lots of options for a smooth transfer.

Some articulation agreements are part of ARTSYS, the Maryland Articulation System, which is intended to aid your transfer from AACC to the University System of Maryland institutions and other participating institutions. Other agreements are established outside of ARTSYS as partnerships between AACC and individual institutions. You can find those partnerships and agreements below.

If you have any questions, contact a transfer advisor.

Declare Your Transfer Pathway

Fill out our Declare Your Transfer Pathway form if you are following one of AACC’s transfer guides. This will help the college gather information to understand which transfer pathways are most in demand and what changes might need to be made to help you transfer successfully to a four-year college or university. You can also let us know if you’d like for the four-year college or university of your choice to contact you.

Transfer School Partnerships

We've got a pathway to your bachelor's degree!

The partnerships and agreements we've created help AACC students who are transferring from AACC to an outside institution. You'll find our top transfer schools in the tiles below along with additional transfer agreements and partnerships listed further down this page. Included will be transfer agreements with these schools that include guides that specify which AACC courses you should take if planning to transfer to a specific institution for the listed major.
