Transferring to another school:

You are strongly encouraged to seek the assistance of advisors when planning coursework for transfer. There are different ways of approaching the transfer process:

1. Earn an Associate of Science (A.S.), Associate of Arts (A.A.), Associate of Engineering Science (A.E.S.), or an Associate of Fine Arts (A.F.A.), at McHenry County College, requiring a minimum of 60 semester hours. See Degree Planning Sheets for more information.
2. Complete the Illinois Articulation Initiative General Education Core before transferring, requiring 37-41 semester hours.
3. Use the Course Applicability System (CAS) and learn how courses transfer between MCC and other CAS participating institutions.
4. Select MCC courses to satisfy general education requirements and major requirements at your transfer institution. See:
   • Transfer Planning Guides by College/University
   • Transfer Planning Guides by Major
   • Transfer Planning Guides for Additional Programs
     • Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) to Bachelor Degree
     • Online Bachelor Degree Programs

If you don't find a guide for the institution and/or major of your interest, we have other transfer resources to help you with the transfer process.

Please note: Transfer guides are produced as a service to you. Every effort is made to maintain up-to-date and accurate information; however, this information is subject to change. It is your responsibility to make contact with the transfer institution. Final responsibility for verifying all transfer information lies with you, the student.

Did you know that in college, you meet with an academic advisor for help with transfer and class issues rather than a guidance counselor like you did in high school? Visit Did you know… for more helpful tips.
